Hello Artists!
if you're getting this you've expressed interest in performing or writing for THEATRE RELIEF ATLANTA.
Here's the deal.
The structure of the performance will be based on individual pieces that can stand alone (and therefore rehearsed and prepared individually) and linked in each night's performance. This way each night may be slightly different as different people will be available on different nights.
What does this mean for you?
1) It means that if you would like to participate look at the following performance dates, check your availability and send the dates you can perform to me.
2) Based on these dates and your availability i will cast you in pieces. If you are available all the nights you will be in the group pieces and solo pieces, if only a few nights you will be in individual pieces.
3) If you don't have an idea that you are working on already i will give you a monologue or scene or poem or song and a description of what it will be like. ( i'm hoping to have each piece be a duet of sorts, i.e. a poet and a musician, a monologue and a dancer, etc.
4) There will be a general rehearsal time scheduled for this week. 7pm at my house every night. If you have specific rehearsal times you need email me and we'll work them out. this way we can all meet and start working individually and then figure out times for group rehearsals. SO... if you can come to my house at 7pm starting tomorrow, Monday. We'll start working on things and getting an idea of what each person is doing. BRING YOUR INSTRUMENTS if you are playing them.
5) Here are some pieces already in development.
THE SUN WILL RISE - song
MONOLOGUES based on interviews
DOWN - song
trumpet/monologue piece
cello/movement piece
poem
tri-monologue by Steve yockey
dance-text by Celeste
and more...
6) IF YOU HAVEA N IDEA EMAIL IT TO ME ASAP!!!
SO... here's the deal, give me your availability, come by my house any night this week starting Monday at 7pm to work through these ideas, email me your questions and rehearsal schedule.
7) FORWARD THIS ON! if you have friends that sing, play music, perform etc. let them know.
Alright. Everyone got their mission? yeah!
