Description:
The Kirk Players will be holding Zoom auditions for a Valentine's Day show, "Words of Love" on Monday, January 4, 2021, from 7-10 p.m. and Wednesday, January 6, 2021, from 7-10 p.m. The rehearsals will be conducted via Zoom on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings beginning the week of January 11, 2021. Cast members will not be called for all rehearsals, we will provide a detailed schedule.
Cast members will be performing the love sonnets of William Shakespeare or other romantic poetry as active monologues. They will be individually directed and assisted with the interpretation of the unique language of Shakespeare and other poets. The show will be directed by Jon Leslie Lynn, assisted by Randy Rice.
Our plan is to record the show and premiere it online on Saturday, February 13th.
For the Zoom auditions, we will be assigning individual time slots so we ask that you indicate whether you would prefer Monday or Wednesday or if either are fine. Timeslots will be between 7- 10 p.m.
We will be posting some sonnets on the Kirk Player Website, www.kirkplayers.org. Audition attendees will select one of these to perform at your audition. Memorized sonnets are preferred, but a strong reading would be fine
The audition form is also on the site. Please download it, and fill it out, especially any conflicts between now and February 13th, 2021.
If you are not familiar with Zoom, please make sure you are set up with Zoom and have a reliable computer/laptop and internet connection.
