Ever been on stage or wanted to give acting a try? Here?s your chance! Golden Isles Arts and Humanities?Coastal Georgia?s source for quality arts, entertainment, and educational programming?is seeking actors of all ages and types for several upcoming productions for the 2012-2013 season, as well as for an ongoing ensemble of youth performers.
?Our upcoming season is rich with opportunities for performers this year, ranging from a famous Pulitzer Prize-winning play with a large cast to a smaller contemporary drama, much like our recent acclaimed production of Collected Stories in April,? notes Heather Heath, executive director of Golden Isles Arts and Humanities. ?And we?re really excited about the launch of the Ritz Radio Theatre, which will present old-time radio dramas both live at the Ritz and broadcast over local radio. Our radio-theatre production of The Maltese Falcon for The Big Read this past February was such a hit, we?ve been getting many requests for more shows in this format. This is a great chance for talented people to be in lively, fun, nostalgic shows that our audiences really love.?
The new Young Actors Company provides opportunities throughout the year for actors aged 13 to 18 to develop their craft and perform in various productions, not only at the Ritz but in a touring production of A Christmas Carol this coming December. They will also get the chance to appear in the winning plays of the annual Young Playwrights Awards, co-sponsored by the Price-Blackburn Foundation, and in short films created in the Basics of Filmmaking camp offered by Golden Isles Arts and Humanities this summer.
Actors are also being sought for the following productions:
?Ritz Radio Theatre: Roles for men and women 18 and up
Late September 2012 ? Casablanca?December 2012 ? It?s A Wonderful Life
