Casting Teen Performers for "Night of the Living Dead Live"

Pine Bluff, AR, United States
ID: 572240Exp: 8/9/2024
Description:

Looking for performers ages 16 and up for "Night of the Living Dead Live". Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: Six strangers in a lonely farmhouse, surrounded by brain-eating zombies — what could go wrong? George A. Romero’s Night of the Living Dead™ Live is a fun and hilarious re-imagining of Romero’s legendary classic. Set in 1968 and presented in all black and white, it literally feels like the film has been brought to life and placed onstage. The play lovingly examines the movie itself, the period in which it was made, and the film’s undying influence on the horror genre. More than just a recreation of the story, the play celebrates the history and influence of the movie. Through a series of multiple endings, the characters are all faced with different issues and challenges while desperately trying to survive the night. However, their contrasting personalities and agendas always seem to prevent the group from working together. This leaves us all wondering: Could anyone survive a night of the living dead? Additional info: How should youI prepare for auditions? The best way to prepare for the audition is to make sure you are familiar with the original Night of the Living Dead. The original film is public domain and it is available on YouTube. Sides of the play will be provided at auditions, and there will be a short movement exercise. Please wear comfortable clothing and shoes you can move around in well. Those auditioning will also be asked to sing a few bars of a song acapella (even "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" will suffice!) Although not a musical, Night of the Living Dead™ Live contains a simple musical number performed by the core cast. Directors do not require virtuosos or anywhere near top-notch singing, so please have fun with it! Important: This is a physically demanding show. Most roles (including zombies) will require varying amounts of crawling and falling. There is hand-to-hand combat in this show as well as gunshots and gore. Important Dates: Rehearsals will begin the week of Aug. 12 Provide all conflict dates you expect between Aug. 12 and Oct. 18. Tech week: Oct. 14-17. Performance Dates: Oct. 18-19 and Oct. 25-26 Performance Time: 7:30 p.m. (All performances) Performers must not have conflicts during tech week or performance dates!
