Focused over a week within a nurturing inspired environment with fabulous teachers, I’m reminded of what brought me to acting in the first place, and filled with the many possibilities that are ahead.” –LAURA PERROTTA (Great Lakes Theater, Cleveland Playhouse, Dobama Theatre, etc.) “The Great Lakes Michael Chekhov Consortium is an incredible, immersive experience. The program teaches practical, useful tools for the actor that can be applied in any and every theatrical experience. It is an amazing opportunity that I would recommend to any actor who is interested in furthering their craft.” –SCOTT ESPOSITO (Ensemble Theatre, Blank Canvas, Beck Center, Lakeland Theatre, etc.) “Just a few months out of the first module, I’ve already witnessed the Technique shape and mold the way I act and direct. I feel myself becoming a different and better theatre artist. More importantly, I find myself connecting with a joy and passion for the craft that I’ve never experienced. I’m having more fun and I’m carrying that spirit of play and discovery into my rehearsals which, quite frankly, is way more enjoyable than feeling like I need to have all the answers...” –CRAIG JOSEPH (Seat of the Pants Productions, Ensemble Theatre, Weathervane Playhouse, Playwrights Local, etc.)

Auditions for WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF Next Week!
by Avenue Arts Marketplace & Theatre 20 May '19

20 May '19

Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? Auditions Avenue Arts Marketplace & Theatre announces auditions for WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF? Located at 324 Cleveland Ave. NW Canton, Ohio 44702 SYNOPSIS: George, a professor at a small college, and his wife, Martha, have just returned home, drunk from a Saturday night party. Martha announces, amidst general profanity, that she has invited a young couple—an opportunistic new professor at the college and his shatteringly naïve new bride—to stop by for a nightcap. When they arrive the charade begins. The drinks flow and suddenly inhibitions melt. It becomes clear that Martha is determined to seduce the young professor, and George couldn't care less. But underneath the edgy banter, which is crossfired between both couples, lurks an undercurrent of tragedy and despair. George and Martha's inhuman bitterness toward one another is provoked by the enormous personal sadness that they have pledged to keep to themselves: a secret that has seemingly been the foundation for their relationship. In the end, the mystery in which the distressed George and Martha have taken refuge is exposed, once and for all revealing the degrading mess they have made of their lives. Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf is presented by special arrangement with Dramatists Play Service, Inc., New York. Directed by: Brian Westerley Auditions will be held on Tuesday May 28th and Wednesday, May 29th from 7-9pm TO SIGN UP, PLEASE VISIT: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/60b0c4bafa82ca3fe3-whos <https://www.signupgenius.com/go/60b0c4bafa82ca3fe3-whos> All auditioners are asked to come prepared to cold read from the script. We also ask that you bring a current headshot and resume with you to auditions. Rehearsals will begin on June 2nd and typically run Sunday through Thursday evenings. Performances: July 12th, 13th, 19th and 20th at 8pm and July 14th at 2pm CHARACTERS: Martha (Female, 50s) - a large, boisterous woman, 52, looking somewhat younger, ample but not flashy. George (Male, 40s-50s) - Martha's husband, 46, thin, hair going grey. Honey (Female, 20s) - 26, a petit girl, rather plain. Nick (Male, 20s) - 28, Honey's husband, well put-together, good looking. All questions should be directed to avenueartstheatre(a)gmail.com <mailto:avenueartstheatre@gmail.com>
