Schedule Week 2

ALL:

Below is this week's schedule.  I have taken into account the conflicts you listed on your audition forms.  For some of you, I was unable to honor your "preferences".  I ask that you always do everything you can to work out a conflict BEFORE you come to me.  That said, do email me ASAP if you absolutely CANNOT be there for some reason.

You will receive new scripts on whatever day you first come to rehearsal.

Thanks,

MZ

Audition Process - Slight Change

As a result of a scheduling error, the auditorium is not available tomorrow for general auditions.  This means I have had to rethink the way I want to handle this first round.

It will now be more traditional.  All male actors will be asked to read excerpts from Ace's monologue in To the Sun.  All female actors will be asked to read excerpts from Samantha's monologue from To the Sun.

Monologues will be provided at the audition, but obviously, it will benefit you to look them over in advance.

People will come in one at a time for me - likely in the choir room - beginning at 4p.  Once I have seen everyone, we will be done for the day.

(NOTE:  Should Nickey Olson be auditioning, he will be asked to read something else!)

Thanks,
MZ
