We
want you! The Space Between (TSB) Theatre Company is taking auditions
for Romeo and Juliet today, December 8th and tomorrow, December 9th,
from 5:00-9:00pm at the DiFiore Center (307 N Main Street) in St.
George, UT. Sing up for your audition slot now by emailing:
tsbtc.manager@gmail.com.
We're
a theater company and we're doing a show. We want people - but not
just any people. We want people who are passionate about theater - who
are interested in
being a part of a family - who are interested in building something. We
want the right people who love theatre. If you're in it for the money,
don't come to us. If you're in it to be a star, don't come to us. If,
however, you have a true love for theater, then come be a part of what
we're doing.
It's often said, "Romeo and Juliet is old.
It's been done into the ground. It's an old, cold, dead thing.
Shakespeare is dead. He's old, cold and dead. You can say the same for
theater. It's old and cold and dead (How many movies did you watch in
the past month? Now - how many theater productions did you go watch in
the past month?)." We are going to disprove that idea for the lie that
it is.
Theater has survived for thousands of years because it's ALIVE.
Romeo and Juliet has survived for hundreds of years because it's ALIVE. We want to take that idea and run with it. This is Shakespeare. This is
Romeo and Juliet
- but it's alive, it's breathing, it's kicking. It's here. It's now.
TSB has the soul intact - and we want you to make it happen.
So come be a part of it.
This
isn't a normal production. We've cut and re-arranged the text of the
show to get to the heart of the matter (Shakespeare was writing for HIS
day, we are writing for ours), and we're modernizing dress and we're
making the production site-specific.
We're The Space Between
Theatre Company. We're interested in pushing people towards a better
understanding of themselves. We're interested in improving the
community that we're a part of. We're interested in doing things that
people think they know and understand and showing them that we can still
always learn and improve and be awed with a sense of wonder.
If you want this, we want you.
