"Immaculate" Show In Need of Performers
ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. Searching for performers to play roles in the "Immaculate" show. Please, see the details below. Rate: Compensation for the show will be a profit share. Additional information: The show will be a fully immersive experience based loosely on the time before the nativity. We will be exploring themes of community, obligation, and belief in the impossible. The story will delve into religious themes, tarot, and pregnancy. The immersive nature of the show will require performers to interact with the audience fully in character. Because of this, experience with improv, immersive work, and collective creation is an asset but not required. There will be physical storytelling and movement used throughout, especially for the actor playing Zach. Submission Deadline: Sept. 30th, 2023. If you're interested, please apply.
