Auditions for two short plays

Welcome to open auditions for a treble-bill of short plays. One of the plays is being revived with the original actors, but all roles in the other two are open:

1) ‘Forever True’ by Neil Walden
A 10-minute play about a pathological liar who unfortunately decides to lie about Finland, a country they know little about. Roles: one female and one male, of any age. Co-directed by Lucja Wanicka and Zach Chamberlaine.

2) ‘Vent’ by Gavin Harrison
A 10-minute play about the pitfalls of taking a ventriloquist dummy on a date. Roles: one female and two male, of any age. Directed by Zach Chamberlaine.

AVAILABILITY – FOREVER TRUE
You must be available on Saturdays 30 April, 7 May and 14 May from 2–6 pm. Depending on how much progress is made at these rehearsals, there may also be rehearsals on Sunday 22 May from 1–4 pm and Friday 6 or 13 May from 6–9 pm, but we will aim to NOT use the Fridays in particular unless absolutely necessary. You must be available for the final rehearsals and performances, which will be held in the period 23 May–5 June (exact dates to be determined soon).

AVAILABILITY – VENT
You must be available for a three-hour rehearsal on one weekday afternoon at least one day per week. (For example, from 3–6 pm on Wednesday.) The exact days and times are very flexible within these parameters, and will be set after the auditions. You must be available for the final rehearsals and performances, which will be held in the period 23 May–5 June (exact dates to be determined soon).

AVAILABILITY IN GENERAL
There is unfortunately very little flexibility in rehearsal schedules this spring. Although one or two tweaks may be possible to the above, please do not audition for something if the planned timetable really does not suit your schedule.

ADVANCE PREPARATION
You will be asked to read some short scenes from the play/s. Depending on how many people are auditioning, we may or may not email you these scenes in advance. We will send you an email about the exact arrangements a few days before the auditions.
