Notice: Audition Call Type: ECC
SYNOPSIS: This production will not alter the material in any way. It does re-imagine how the material is presented. Similar to Man of La Mancha, the trope of a play is performed in an environment different from the one it's presented in. La Mancha has many settings for the Quixote story, but it all takes place in the prison that Cervantes finds himself in. This production will present in a similar way. It will be performed by the inmates of Fogg's Asylum, the madhouse referenced in the play. Therefore, all cast members will play characters of our mutual creation who are committed to the asylum, as well as their assigned characters in the Sweeney story. All sets, costumes and props will be limited to what would organically exist in that asylum. The ensemble will be ever-present onstage, participating and reacting to the main action. It is a very physical and stylish production, and though it contains the humorous moments we all know, it leans more to the dark and complex themes of the play.
30s–60s. Character identifies as male. Open to all ethnicities. The warden of the insane asylum. Cold, clinical, and cruel. His inmate persona is probably the Renfield of the group. Clearly crazy. And so thrilled to be given the role of running the place. Probably only taste of power he's ever known. All actors must be comfortable with, and capable of safely navigating, heights, staircases, and ladders onstage.
Vocal Range: Open
20-45. We welcome and encourage actors of all gender identities, expressions, and lived experiences to submit. Open to all ethnicities. Seeking an unconventional and offbeat/darkly comedic ensemble of actors who move or dance. Actors will serve as the Greek Chorus and collaborate to create a character driven movement vocabulary. The ensemble is on stage for the majority of the production and will portray a variety of roles including citizens of London, customers, police, etc. Seeking a mix of both Movers and Dancers, but all must be singers with the ability to sing in tight harmonies. Ensemble must be comfortable with physically demanding movement, including crawling and climbing. Please mark on submission if you have experience with acrobatics and/or parkour; this is a plus but not a requirement for all. Principal understudies will be cast from within the ensemble.
Vocal Ranges: Open
25-55. Swings to cover ensemble roles. See Ensemble breakdown above for details.
