Casting Notice

Thanks again for a terrific set of auditions – the energy, enthusiasm and spirit you show will help us create another great Einstein show! Before (or after) you dash down to find if your name appears, please take note of these important bits of housekeeping:

  • There is a signature line next to the names – sign there by your name to accept your role. Sign either the list on the auditorium door or the one on the theatre callboard in the music hall.
  • If you are NOT cast at this time, have a little patience and a spot might open up a little later on down the line – especially after report cards come out!
  • All assignments are tentative pending payment of ECA fees, continued good grades and others factors that might come up. If you have NOT paid your ECA fee see me immediately. You will not be permitted at rehearsal after break until it is paid.
  • Roles that featured shared casting – with the exception of the Man in Chair, shared role performers are responsible only for the principal character track - you’ll be “off” the days you aren’t performing your role. The actors sharing the Man in Chair are also sharing an ensemble track – that’s so we don’t lose an extra male voice in the ensemble.
  • Any paperwork (resume and contract) that is not complete needs to be turned in ASAP, preferably before the break but definitely by the first day back, January 3. . Also, complete all your info on VSM, including phone numbers, addresses, and updated bio if you haven’t yet. All cast members have VSM accounts – new crew members, see me about setting one up for yourself.
  • CONFLICTS should be entered into the system by December 31. Enter any confirmed conflict for any event between 2:30 and 10pm on school days and 9am – 3pm Saturday. No conflicts may be entered for dates after March 1.
  • There are no specific ensemble assignments yet – that will develop as we se what we’ve got and how we want to use the performers.
  • We will meet at 2:15 today, Thursday, December 22 for the first read-through with the cast album. This is always a fun experience – plan to stay for the whole reading – it’s a short show so we should be able to finish by about 4:30, 5 at latest..
  • This year ALL players will be getting books. do not write in them except light pencil marks. You are responsible for the replacement cost if lost or damaged - $25.00.
  • EVERYONE will get a RehearseScore disc that you can load into your computer at home – it will help you to learn your parts by providing a note-perfect accompaniment and practice track. Expect to get your copy after the break.
  • CREW CHIEF personnel are expected at the readthrough. Note the available slots that we have at this time (some might have already been filled – just ask). If you want one of those jobs, make sure your paperwork is in and talk to me about the job you are interested in.
  • Available crew chief positions may be filled by cast members depending on the nature of the job and the student’s position within the cast. Assistant Directors should not have a stage role, or should have a role that allows for significant time off stage..
  • Depending on the available talent, UNDERSTUDIES will be assigned for each principal role that is not shared, and will fill in as needed during the rehearsal process.

CASTING ASSIGNMENT AS OF DECEMBER 22, 2011

List is alphabetical by character or work assignment name.

*All crew chief assignments pending approval of technical/artistic staff and successful completion of paperwork. Let me know if you are interested in one of the available positions.
