AUDITIONS:
Tuesday, July 1st from 4pm-6pm,
Saturday, July 5th from 4pm-6pm
AND Sunday, July 6th from 3pm-6pm.

A 10-day workshop featuring basic acting workshops, movement workshops, and Shakespeare Master Classes. Admission is by audition and interview.

The workshop is designed for High School Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors (Fall 2014). The workshop will focus on understanding, speaking, and acting Shakespeare, along with basic tenets of acting.

The Guthrie is seeking talented students with acting experience who are ready for ten days of high-level training. Sessions will run from 10:00am to 4:00pm, Monday – Saturday. There will be no class on Sunday. There is a fee of $300 total for the workshop. However, students should not be dissuaded from auditioning because of the fee; we will make every effort to assist worthy actors with necessary scholarships! Lodging and meals are not provided. This project is an excellent transition opportunity for high school students interested in forging a path to professional-level theater training programs.

For more information, please contact Amanda Davis, Company Development Assistant at the Guthrie, by emailing amandad@guthrietheater.org or by calling 612.225.6183.

Lofties brought down the house!

The Lofties brought down the house on Sunday, June 8th at the Spotlight Showcase at the Orpheum Theatre in Minneapolis. Katherine Spicuzza, Naomi Ridley and Brendan Finn rocked the house as part of the Outstanding performances medley and Maggie Eckberg and Garrett Hildebrandt made us proud with the Honorable Mention winners.

Our Outstanding Orchestra was well represented by Donovan Miller, Isabella Wurm, John Frieberg, Haley Martin and Emily Rau. Our final award of the evening came with the announcement that East Ridge was granted our fourth Community Engagement award!

Naomi Ridley

Naomi Ridley made us so proud with two nights of outstanding performances as she shined in the Triple Threat competition! What an incredible two nights of celebration for East Ridge and the Loft Stage!

Aida passion was felt throughout the entire audience as every cast member left it on the stage.

Elder Evan Coutu left this week for his two year mission for the Mormon church which will take him to Warsaw, Poland. You will be missed!
