TRIX

The only rules that really matter are these: what a man can do and what a man can’t do. For instance, you can accept the fact that your father was a pirate and a good man or you can’t. But pirate is in your blood, boy, so you’ll have to square with that someday. And me, for example, I can let you drown, but I can’t bring this ship into Tortuga all by me onesies, savvy? So, can you sail under the command of a pirate, or can you not?

These are the specific people that we need to call back. Several will be reading more than one part.

Some technical problems held up the posting of callbacks, but they are going up in an hour or less.

We are focusing on certain very specific parts today. Just because we are not focusing on callbacks for other parts does NOT mean that we have made up our minds about anything. I suspect that there is a lot we will see today.

I am going over to meet with Mrs Helbig and Mrs Johnson in just a few minutes.

Below, you’ll find a link. But first, here’s a picture of what the link will take you to.

Note the circled part. That’s the only thing in the photo that you need to pay attention to, and those links are the only ones that we need to focus on today. Those are links that will take you to the various sides that we will be looking at. I have numbered them, as you can see above, and I have listed the characters who will be involved in those scenes. Not all of the characters in the show are represented, however, the sensibilities and general acting requirements of all of the characters in the show can be found.

Thanks!

The sign ups for auditions went up a few days ago. You can find them in the chorus area. There are 15 slots for each day. We really need to fill all of those slots before we add anymore. If those are all filled, then we can certainly add more.

Thanks!

Part of what we are looking for is:

1. Do you do research on the songs online?
2. Can you find karaoke accompaniment?
3. Can you demonstrate a good song in less than a minute?
4. Can you do this while avoiding preconceptions based on other performers?

Music T & W in the chorus room at 4-5:30 at the latest. Choose either day. There are limited slots.

Acting for everyone on Thursday. Same times and location. Have a strategy for each role.

During the period we have two rehearsals per day, with one play each, it’s fine to come during the second hour if you are in the second play. And if you are in the first play we are scheduled to rehearse, it’s fine to leave when we are done.

Let me see how the first three + rehearsal day goes before I commit to a time estimate or pattern with that. It should only take me one day to get a feel for it. And I may even know something before then.
