Bristol
FellSwoop Theatre are looking to cast a male actor in the ensemble driven adaptation of 'Belleville Rendez-vous' which has just returned from its sell-out run both at Edinburgh Fringe and its transfer to the Pleasance Theatre, London. Following this, Belleville is now touring a number of theatres between January 5th - 7th Jan and 22nd Jan - February 14th 2011. With availability needed for potentially more dates wk 27th Feb and wk 12th March.
Belleville was orginally devised by a cast of 12 and uses physical theatre, puppetry and live music. We are therefore looking for a performer who can contribute to a strong and imaginative devising team, and who displays ability and enthusiasm towards dance, mime and music. It would also be a bonus if you lived in Bristol.
However, if you do not consider yourself a movement-based performer, please do not let this deter you from auditioning. We are not interested in casting a trained dancer, our priority is to find someone who work well within our cast and the style of the piece and so we are looking for physical commitment and rhythm in the performance.
The audition will consist of a workshop on Saturday 3rd December at The Wardrobe Theatre 4.30-6pm. All those considering the role must be available to rehearse the week 16th-22nd December 2011, and 2-4th January 2012, and for the duration of the touring dates mentioned above.
The fee for the entire run would be £250, and in addition all travel and accommodation for the tour dates will be paid for. Plus any fundraising, workshops and profit will be divided by the cast.
