Calling All Actors Theatre in the Woods is offering a three hour workshop on acting Saturday, September 12, starting promptly at 9:00 AM. This workshop,  led by veteran professional actor and director Jan Lee, will focus on the fact that acting is doing. Through the use of specific exercises participants will discover how to unleash the energy that fuels characterization. Directors are also welcome to attend, as well as those with no stage experience but with a desire to test the waters. Casual dress which allows for active movement is appropriate.Directors Karen Kaufman and Carolyn Burnett of the upcoming Theatre in the Woods production of Shakespeare’s “Much Ado about Nothing”, encourage all with interest in auditioning for that production to attend this workshop. “Theatre in the Woods is able to offer this unique opportunity with support from the Wisconsin Arts Board”, explains Burnett. “We will be offering later workshops geared to specific challenges such as speaking Shakespeare’s language, but this initial workshop is for anyone and everyone of high school age and older with an interest in being on stage or in directing.” The workshop is free of charge but those expecting to attend should make that known by calling Burnett at 354-3803 or emailing shiitake@chibardun.net. The workshop will be held in the Quam theater, located at 605 1st. Street, Shell Lake. Theatre in the Woods, Ltd. is a nonprofit community theater serving greater Washburn County and surrounding communities since 1990. TITW is a member of the Wisconsin Arts Board and the Wisconsin Association of Community Theaters and is open without barrier to all interested parties. | Auditions for "Fools" August 26 and 27 Auditions will be held Wednesday and Thursday evenings, August 26 and 27, at 6:30 at the Erika Quam Memorial Theater for “Fools”, a delightful, fanciful comedyby Neal Simon. The production October 8-10, 17 & 18, will open TITW's 20th season as “Fools” did for the 10th season and the inaugural season in 1990. To celebrate Theatre in the Woods' history and connect with those other two productions,a few actors will reprise their roles from one or the other of the earlierperformances, and in one case take over the part played by a family member. Yet to be cast are the two young "romantic" leads, Leon the schoolteacher and Sophia his pupil and ultimate breaker of the village curse. Actors for these roles should be able to play an age between late teens and mid twenties. The three remaining parts are the magistrate, probably an older male, the butcher, and the mailman, either gender, no specific age.Carolyn Burnett will direct, with Eva Olsgard putting a unique look to the set design, and Donna Barnes-Haesemeyer and Hanna Bartz designing colorful costumes. “Even though Theatre in the Woods has produced this play twice before, and I directed the first time, our audience is certainly in for a new treat this third time around”, assures Burnett.Auditions are open to all regardless of past acting experience. For additional information, or to obtain a script, call Carolyn at 354-3803 or emailshiitake@chibardun.net. The Quam theater is located 605 1st. Street, Shell Lake. |
