Musician Wanted for "Circus of Wonders" Play
ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. Looking for a sixth member to round out the cast for The Toronto Fringe Festival (taking place from July 3-14, 2024). Please, see the details below. Rate: This production operates on a profit share model and directors are a non-union production. Additional information: THE MUSICIAN is a member of the circus who has not quite refined their act and is on a journey of discovering what that act might be. They are free-spirited, spontaneous, and fun-loving. As this is a devised show, directors will be relying on all members of the collective to help define the characters and create/reimagine the acts. Performers should be comfortable with collective creation, improvisation, and clown. The audition will consist of two parts: Part 1) Individual: Please prepare up to 1 minute of a song that showcases your storytelling abilities. This should be self-accompanied, if possible. Then, please show us up to 1 minute of "fantastic"! This can be any special skill you'd like to show them (a monologue, a dance, a Weird Al Yankovic impression, etc) - if you did not play an instrument to accompany your song, please be sure your instrumental skills are demonstrated in your minute of "fantastic". Part 2) Group: We want to see you create! In a group (which will include members of the company and other auditionees), you'll be given a prompt and then will have 5 minutes to create something wonderful. Please be prepared to play, get silly, and collaborate. Auditions will take place on Tuesday, April 23 between 4:30pm and 7:30pm. Rehearsals will take place every Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday evening starting April 30. All performers are expected to attend every rehearsal. If you're interested, please apply.
