Thank you all for auditioning. We were wildly impressed by the talent we saw, and cannot wait to start this process. Please note that Twelfth Night will be entered as our 2016 MSHSL One Act Competition piece. The competition piece will perform at the Section 3AA Prelims on January 26th, 2016, with the potential for additional performances on February 3rd and February 12th, 2015. Comedy of Errors is our winter play piece. Both plays will be performed side-by-side in our Evening of Shakespeare on February 5 – 7, 2016. Ensemble Players, you will know which specific show(s) you are cast in by Monday, December 14th. Thank you all so much for spending the coming months with us, we are THRILLED! We will see all of you TODAY at 4:30 PM in the Black Box for our first read-through.
Best,
Matt and Franny
Comedy of Errors Callback List
Twelfth Night Callback List
Congratulations Students on your callback! Please be in the Black Box at 4:30pm. Prepare to read for the roles you have been called back for. The numbers indicate the scene(s) we would like to take a look at. Those scenes are attached to this post. Feel free to look ahead and prepare! Narrator/Auxiliary roles, we have some specific scenes for you to look at, but there are still other roles in the mix for those of you on this list; come prepared to be our “auxiliary” players tomorrow.
Everyone come prepared with special talents or instruments that we discussed at initial auditions. We may or may not ask you to play! Pianists, we have a keyboard readily available for you. Also, and this is the biggie, COME PREPARED WITH ALL OF YOUR CONFLICTS IN HAND! This will play a huge role in how you are cast. Be honest and put it all on your conflict sheet/calendar. We are willing to be flexible with our schedule, but communication is key.
Best of luck and THANK YOU for coming prepared and ready to rock on the first 2 days of auditions.
Love,
Matt & Mrs. V
