| Company Auditions! |
[16 Nov 2009|03:01pm] |
 Theatre Unleashed, an edgy, ambitious, no-holds-barred theatre company in residence at The Sherry Theatre in North Hollywood is holding Company Auditions for our ever expanding community of fellow artists.
We are currently enhancing our company with an influx of performers, writers, directors, lighting designers, costume designers, choreographers, musical directors, pretty much anyone interested in the art of live theatre.
We're looking for professionals who have experience and want to become a part of an ever-growing nonprofit dedicated to telling amazing stories for the city of Los Angeles.
Our recently announced 2010 Main Stage Season will include an evening of satire by the great playwright Anton Chekhov, Shakespeare's Richard II and two original Theatre Unleashed plays -- The Rape by Phillip Kelly, about the search for law in a post society world, and Lang by Andrew Moore, a drama following German film director Fritz Lang and his dealings with Nazi Germany. With a slew of Fringe shows, including our sketch comedy troupe Die Gruppe, performance art events, environmental theatre, our late night series and many more in the works, Theatre Unleashed provides several opportunities to grow as an artist and allow your talent to flourish.
Like most companies in Los Angeles, we are a dues paying company, currently set at $40 a month. As a member of Theatre Unleashed, you have a stake in the direction the company takes, a voice in the collaborative efforts of our incredible group of people, and a chance to cultivate your talents and abilities as an artist.
Our next day for company auditions will be Sunday November 22nd from Noon-4:30pm. If you’re interested in taking part in the auditions and becoming a part of our company or have questions email: Erin Scott at erin.scott@theatreunleashed.com. For more information, go to www.theatreunleashed.com
What to Prepare: Two one minute monologues. A contemporary and a classical.
Thank you and we hope to see you at the auditions.

| fake pee |
[27 Oct 2009|08:06pm] |
Yes, fake urine. you read correctly.
here's the story.
I'm working on a play at the moment which requires one of the characters to actually urinate on stage. She has to stand over the top of another actor while he's lying on the floor with his hands tied behins his back, and she has to pee on him.
Now, before you ask this play is about King Cross in Sydney and the associated drugs, whores and corruption, so it's a bit, well, adult.
Here's where you kids come in.
I need to work out a way for my lovely actress to be able to fake pee because obviously real pee is gross and not an option. It needs to look as real and disgusting as possible, but as I'm the one who gets to wash the costumes and I'm dating the actor that gets peed on, obviously fake pee is better.
I'm thinking of somehow strapping the bag of fake pee to her underneath her costume with a tube going down to her knickers (she'll have two pairs on) underneath her teensy little hooker skirt. I just need to work out how to stop gravity working against me. She has to "pee" at a fairly specific moment, so I need to work out how to make the liquid release on cue. It has to be done as hands free as possible (ie, no reaching up her skirt to unplug anything), but she is able to squeeze the liquid pack slightly (it'll probably be put in her bra). As all student productions, this one basically has bugger all budget, but I probably have 15 bucks if I need it.
so, my fellow theatre nerds? any suggestions?
oh, and this is crossposted EVERYWHERE.
ta!
