Contract for TWELFTH NIGHT

Thank you for your interest in Twelfth Night by William Shakespeare.  This is going to be a very exciting and demanding adventure for us. The play is being produced by Inner-City Shakespeare, a philanthropic organization dedicated to giving inner-city students the opportunity to learn about theatre, performance and life through Shakespeare and acting.  If you are cast, you will be surrounded by interesting and extraordinary actors and other theatre artists, who are here to help you not only with the rehearsal and performance aspect of Twelfth Night, but  also here to help mentor you.  Many of the artists you will be working with are actors from B.A.F.T.A., the British Academy of Film and Television Artists, and other working actors.

The cast list will be posted on Tuesday, February 10^th on the door of 503.  Rehearsals will start the day after, on Wednesday, February 11^th, beginning at 3:15 and continuing to 5 p.m.  and on Thursday, February 12^th, from 3:15 to 5 p.m. Weekly rehearsals, starting on the week of February 16^th,  will be held in 503, from 3:15 to 5:00 on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays.  You will be required to attend Saturday morning rehearsals starting at a date to be determined. Professional actors, some of whom will be from B.A.F.T.A., will be attending the Wednesday and Saturday rehearsals to help and mentor you as a young actor.

The rehearsals will continue through the months of February, March and April (and may require a few days’ rehearsal during the spring break).  We will do a performance of TWELFTH NIGHT for the school on Friday, April 24^th.  We will also be performing on Saturday, May 2^nd at Grand Park in downtown Los Angeles, and every Saturday through the month of May at different parks in Los Angeles. It is imperative that you arrive on time for these performances, which are off-site with no official school-provided transportation.

Because this is going to be a very long, intense but amazing adventure, it is vitally important that the following rules are adhered to:

·      Punctuality

·      No unexcused absences

·      No talking, playing around during rehearsals or when an adult is speaking

·      No cell phones on stage – ever!

·      Polite, respectful behavior at all times

If you are cast, this should be a fun, exciting, and maybe even life changing experience for you.  We look forward to working with you.

Sincerely,

Kate Bridges
