OPEN CASTING CALL FOR ACTORS TO PLAY SIXTH FORM AGED STUDENTS.
IRON THE GRASS PRODUCTIONS is staging another production of their play, THE COUNCIL. They are looking for four boys and four girls and are holding open auditions at BESPOKE on QUEEN STREET in HULL (near Waterstones, please ask us for directions if unsure) from 7PM to 9PM on TUESDAY 5TH JULY.
THE COUNCIL is a critique of the modern education system. It tells the story of seven students on a school council who felt so angry that they staged a protest in their school, with disastrous consequences. This is prompted by the suicide of their friend, Cathy, who’s death many of them blame on the system itself and its instigators. It’s a drama with moments of light and wit.
For the AUDITION, we recommend that actors prepare to read two parts though this is not essential. Actors are not required to know lines off by heart and there will be script samples at the location and some opportunity to familiarize yourself with the material, though preparation in advance is appreciated. AUDITION SIDES and CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS are attached to this post.
The production will be performed in late August. Rehearsals will be one or two evenings a week (likely Tuesdays and Thursdays but if that is an issue, please let us know). We understand that holidays may already be booked or planned, providing we know well enough in advance, in order to plan rehearsals, this will not be an issue.
IRON THE GRASS PRODUCTIONS is a semi-professional company, aiming to put on professional level productions but is currently unable to pay its actors in anything more than experience. Though in the future, who knows!
Please CONTACT US with any queries, about anything to do with THE COUNCIL or IRON THE GRASS PRODUCTIONS, including any worries about the audition.
We are supported by @BB.
