Auditions for Summer Shakespeare Project

Sarah — Fri, 28 May 2010 16:23:56 +0000

Aporia is holding auditions June 3 for some fun Shakespeare in the Park on June 26-27! June 26th we have a permit to perform in Central Park at 2 and 4pm, June 27th we’re in process of obtaining a permit for Prospect Park…or we might just wing it

The deal: 5 scenes, 4 directors, no tech, great parts! Part show, part street performance, part picnic, we’re designing this project to be flexible and low stress while still upholding Aporia’s insistence on artistic excellence. Time commitment will depend on which role / scene you are cast in. Rehearsals will be evenings and weekends in June, mostly outside. No pay but great way to get involved with an active company.

The Scenes:
Romeo & Juliet 1.1, 12th Night 2.4, Richard II 2.4, Hamlet 3.1 & Henry V 4.3

There will be gender-bending! Wohoooo! E-mail Allison Smith at AporiaCasting at gmail.com with your headshot and resume if you’re interested. She will be in touch to schedule an audition.

Shakespeare in Central Park anyone?

Shout out to one of Aporia’s own, Asa Merritt, whose play “Art of Attack” was selected to participate in the NY International Fringe Festival this summer!! Asa is a member of our writing group, Swillable Ink, and Aporia presented a reading of “Art of Attack” as part of the inaugural Will Work for Art. We’re very excited to have been part of this fascinating play’s development and can’t wait to see it play in the Fringe this summer.
