Various Castings
We're always looking for actors, singers, and entertainers of all kinds. 18 years of age and over please. We particularly need the following:
- People who work
easily with others in fluid, constantly changing ensemble casts.
- Improv
actors who can build distinctive characters based on a limited script outline,
then engage easily one-on-one in character with individual audience
members.
- Improv comedians who can turn a one-word audience suggestion into
thirty seconds of hilarity.
- Singers who can "sell" a song.
-
Entertainers like musicians, magicians, puppeteers, or comedians comfortable
performing in intimate venues with the audience at close
quarters.
Sound fun? Contact us! We'd like to get to know you better!
