Auditions for Mr. Burns... A Post Electric Play
by Eric Kildow 27 Nov '18

27 Nov '18

KSU Trumbull Theatre will be holding auditions for "Mr. Burns...A Post Electric Play" on December 3rd and 4th from 6-9pm. DATES: Rehearsals will begin around January 14th, with the show going up March 15th-24th. ROLES: 3m 5f, with additional flexible. ACTING: Come prepared to tell a short (3-4 minute) entertaining story (fictional or factual) and to read from the script. We are looking for people who could hold their own in a largely oral culture. SINGING: Bring 16 measures of a prepared song. Please bring sheet music as an accompanist will be provided. Auditionees should be able to match pitch and rhythm and will be given a sample to demonstrate. Songs can be of any genre and should show vocal strength in the lower registers. Auditions are open to the public. Please call 330-675-8887 or email trumbullboxoffice(a)kent.edu for more information. THE SHOW: Anne Washburn’s imaginative dark comedy propels us forward nearly a century, following a new civilization stumbling into its future. After the collapse of civilization, a group of survivors share a campfire and begin to piece together the plot of "The Simpsons" episode "Cape Feare" entirely from memory. 7 years later, this and other snippets of pop culture (sitcom plots, commercials, jingles, and pop songs) have become the live entertainment of a post apocalyptic society, sincerely trying to hold onto its past. 75 years later, these are the myths and legends from which new forms of performance are created. A paean to live theater, and the resilience of Bart Simpson through the ages, Mr. Burns is an animated exploration of how the pop culture of one era might evolve into the mythology of another. --- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. https://www.avg.com
