Seeking Dancers Interested in Photos and/or Videos

*Seeking Dancers Interested in Photos and/or Videos* *I am looking for professional or semi-professional modern/contemporary dancers who have an interest in capturing their performance in photos and/or video. I am looking for solo performers or couples, not groups.* *I am not seeking to capture a live performance in front of an audience. Rather, I prefer an arrangement where we can take the time necessary to shoot multiple times from different angles, perhaps with multiple cameras.* *I am a semi-professional photographer and videographer, and for the right opportunity I will consider volunteering my time to provide you with high quality images and video of your artistic performance.* *Dan* *____* *"**Logic will get you from A to B.

Workshop Players Auditions For "Arsenic and Old Lace" by Joseph Kesserling
by Workshop Players 15 Sep '23

15 Sep '23

*Auditions Announced - for Arsenic and Old Lace,* *by Joseph Kesserling, Directed by Pat Price* *PERFORMANCE DATES:* Nov. 9-12, Nov. 17-19 *AUDITION DATES:* September 17 and 18 at 7:00 with possible callbacks on the 20th. Ages below are suggested and if an actor/actress can play the part regardless of actual age, they will be considered. *NO PARTS ARE PRE-CAST. SOME MALE ROLES MAY BE FILLED BY FEMALES. SOME ACTORS MAY BE ASKED TO PLAY MULTIPLE ROLES.* Sides will be provided at auditions. Please do your best to read the play in advance. For more information, contact the director at: joeandpatprice(a)centurytel.net *ABBY BREWSTER:* Female 50-75 or able to play age). A darling lady, very modest with typical Victoria charm and grace. She is the absolute embodiment of the values and polite society of a bygone age … all except for the poisoning thing ... *MARTHA BREWSTER* (Female 50-75 or able to play age). Very sweet, but more submissive than Abby, though still a strong woman. Always wears a high collar. *ELAINE HARPER:* (Female 25-40 or able to play age). An attractive girl, surprisingly wise in the way of the world for a minister’s daughter. She is full of zest and spunk. She must progress from casual happiness to utter bliss, to twisted confusion, to stark fear, to relief…so the actress must be able to hit many levels. *MORTIMER BREWSTER:* (Male 30-50 or able to play age). Abby and Martha’s nephew. Once he discovers the first body, he must be electrified. This actor pretty much controls the show. He must be capable of physical comedy, have solid comedic timing, all while remaining highly likable and engaging. *TEDDY BREWSTER:* (40-60 or able to play age) Mortimer’s kind-hearted brother. He believes he is Teddy Roosevelt, a belief he must make very real for the audience. He is serious in his portrayal and therefore funny, *JONATHAN BREWSTER:* (40-60 or able to play age). A psychopath with numerous murders to his credit, he must be an imposing, scary guy! Short-tempered and creepy Jonathan is a definite presence. *DR. EINSTEIN* (Male, any age, but probably leaning toward 40-60). He is a German plastic surgeon, so must have an accent to show it. He is submissive, maybe even intimidated by Jonathan. He is a good guy whose life has gone bad. It would be good for the audience to sympathize with him. *THE REVEREND DR, HARPER* (Male 50-70) THE ACTOR PLAYING THIS ROLE MAY BE CAST IN AN ADDITIONAL ROLE AS WELL. As Elaine’s father, he shows concern about the upcoming marriage. He is dignified, refined and mild-mannered, but steadfast in his concerns. Cameo. *OFFICER BROPHY:* (25-50) A likable sort of fellow. The typical policeman on the neighborhood beat who knows his “people.” *OFFICER KLEIN:* (25-40) Brophy’s partner, who doesn’t talk as much as his counterpart, but who values his job and the people he protects. *OFFICER O’HARA:* (any age, may be male or female). Full of life, O’Hara is a good-natured wannabe playwright who is eager to succeed with his /her writing … maybe a bit too eager! This character doesn’t mean to come across as annoying, but to Mortimer, maybe he/she is! *MR. GIBBS:* (55-80 or able to play age. THIS ACTOR MAY BE ASKED TO ALSO PLAY OTHER ROLES). An elderly man who wishes to rent a room and nearly falls victim to the “wine” until Mortimer chases him away, Cameo. *LIEUTENANT ROONEY:* (any age and may be played by male or female). This is the person in charge of the local police precinct, very little patience for blunders. This character runs a pretty tight ship being clearly in charge at all times. *WITHERSPOON:* (any age) This is the superintendent of Happy Dale. Mild-mannered and kind, this character can be played by male or female. If a male, it is possible this role would be combined with Rev. Harper and Mr. Gibbs. -- Workshop Players Theatre 44820 Middle Ridge Road P.O. Box 1193, Amherst, OH 44001 Box Office: 440-634-0472 Find us on Facebook, YouTube and Instagram!
