AUDITIONS

Two Medieval Plays

The Brome Play of Abraham and Isaac

&

Everyman

Directed by Richard Clifford

Open auditions March 25; special concessions will be made for performers in Children of Eden who would like to audition.

AUDITIONS will be by appointment; watch for a sign-up sheet a few weeks prior to the audition. Walk-ins can be accomodated only as time allows.

To prepare:

Read the plays. Both plays are easily accessible online or available through the Theatre Script Library.

Prepare two contrasting monologues (one contemporary and one classical), each about one minute in length (see audition guidelines below).

Auditions will be evaluated using the following criteria:

• Ability to urgently pursue strong, clear objectives.

• Ability to make varied, specific and bold acting choices.

• Mastery of an expressive and flexible vocal and physical instrument.

• Demonstration of facility with language and a clear understanding of the text.

• Demonstration of range and contrast.

CALLBACKS will be by invitation March 26

Rehearsals begin March 30

The show runs May 26-29, June 1-5

Now accepting resumes for production stage manager. Bring application materials to Snow 126. More information about time and place will come as we get closer to the audition.

Please note:

• This is an open call. Non-majors, staff, faculty, and friends may audition, although casting preference will always be given to qualified, current, on-track students and to majors.  

• All participants—even non-students and off-track students—will commit to adhere to BYU-Idaho standards while on campus.  

• Rehearsals will run over Conference Weekend. There will be no conflicts with the broadcast sessions, but it will be very difficult to attend any live sessions in SLC.  

• If you have conflicts with any of these dates, please audition for another show.  

• All roles are available; see cast list for more information.

• Participants who are current students will be required to take up to 2 credits of TA260R, 360R, or 460R.
