by Eric Kildow 27 Oct '20

27 Oct '20

Kent Trumbull Theatre is announcing auditions for "She Kills Monsters: Virtual Realms" by Qui Nguyen. It will be performed on March 5 & 6 2021. A comedic romp into the world of fantasy role-playing games, "She Kills Monsters" is a high-octane dramatic comedy laden with homicidal fairies, nasty ogres, and 90's pop culture – a heart-pounding homage to the geek and warrior within all of us. We are looking for 8 female and 4 male actors (character breakdown below) to join us for this virtual production. This play will be performed via Zoom, all actors will need a computer with a webcam and reliable internet access to participate, as this play will be performed completely virtually. Current rough rehearsal schedule has rehearsals commencing January 25th, with rehearsals M-Th until opening. The director will work with conflicts and only call people who are needed on a given night. Please submit a short comedic monologue via video to Eric S. Kildow ( ekildow(a)kent.edu) by November 25th, 2020. Please include the following in your email: - Name - Contact Information - Weeknight Conflicts (between 5pm and 9pm M-Th) - A short list of previous roles (or enclose a resume) Callbacks, as needed, will be in the first week of December. Please contact Professor Kildow if you have any questions. ROLE BREAKDOWN NARRATOR–A mysterious female voice (think Galadriel at the beginning of Fellowship of the Ring). May also double as Farrah the Faerie. TILLY EVANS–Agnes’s younger sister, killed in an accident. Her D&D notebook gives a glimpse into her life, both real and imaginary. In that world, she is Tillius the Paladin. AGNES EVANS–Tilly’s older sister, a senior in high school and a cheerleader. She is average. Agnes embarks on a quest to learn more about her sister by exploring the world of her D&D roleplaying game.

Dept of Dance at CWRU announces Fall 2020 Performance Spaces and Places
by CWRU Dept of Dance 26 Oct '20

26 Oct '20

Case Western Reserve University’s performance series, Nouveaux Espaces, kicks off this November with a new work by faculty member Gary Galbraith. Spaces and Places is a video dance project that promises to take us outside the ‘boxes of dancers’ we have all seen in virtual projects since last March. Galbraith, who continues to chart new territories in dance, collaborated with 14 dancers, both undergraduate and graduate, located around the world - Cleveland, Ghana, and China, for a work that is fully outdoors. Placing the Cleveland dancers in small groups at selected sculptures on the CWRU campus, he is using exciting spherical video technology that will allow the viewer to see the movements from different angles. Video of the dancers in Ghana, who are dancing along pathways,and inside groves of trees, along with dancers on blocks of stone along the ocean and in a field in China, will be artfully aligned with the videos taken in Cleveland. This work will premiere in November 2020, and will be made available on the CWRU Department of Dance YouTube Channel <https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrHSOF-J0QLpse-RiPjcPcQ>. The premiere date is November 1st so check back soon for more information!
