CAN ANYBODY TELL ME ANY FORTHCOMING AUDITIONS IN THE PORTSMOUTH AREA
(Submitted Friday, October 06, 2000)
Hi. Please could you give me some advice on where I start to become a professional actress? I recognize that it may take me years of hard work to become one but I know I can do it. What do I do first as I have never acted? Do I join an amateur dramatics club in my area first and practise for a year or so? Do I have to attain a 3 year degree in acting before I can become a professional actress or is it more about less qualifications academically and more about natural acting ability and talent that you may or may not have? I have 2 NVQ's in computers - is that enough to be qualified to gain entry to an acting college? I would be very grateful indeed if you could please enlighten me on where to begin exactly. By the way, does the fact that I am 34 automatically prevent me from getting anywhere from becoming a professional actress?

My Society recently staged an amateur production of this brand new musical, written in its entirety by two of the Society's members.

Hi,We are a newly formed amdram group out in the sticks,looking for a source of scripts, preferably comedy, can you help? On behalf of Bowes Amateur Theatrical Society (B.A.T.S) Eric Liddell
(Submitted Saturday, October 28, 2000)
I think your best starting point for scripts is your local library. They will have a book which will list thousands of plays. They are grouped in sections i.e. comedy, tragedy etc. It will also list number of actors required and number of males/females and a short synopsys. We have found this to be the easiest way. Also - check local radio. If they have an "arts" section they can ask for budding writers to submit plays to you. - If you are the first to perform it - then when (if) the play is published - your players will be listed ! - Hope this helps - Mark Jennings - Too Friendly Theatre Co. Merseyside.

Hope this is in time ! A high class prostitute in the 70's did not look like a prostitute!!! (Oh help I hear you say!) The main item was a fur coat ( the saying was - all coat and no knickers!) It was normally 3 quarter length and black stockings (NOT fishnet). The hair was "high class looking" These prostitutes met with rich clients - the clients liked to often show them off as girl friends - so tarty was out of the question! - My advice is : look posh and rich!

I think it would be best to join an amateur dramatics club where you can build up experience gradually in the chorus and work your way up through small parts up to the Lead. I do not think acedemic qualifications matter as long as you have talent.Many leading actors and actresses such as Brenda Blethyn , Bob Hoskins and Judy Dench started in amateur dramatics.In fact Brenda Bletyhn was older than you are know when she first joined the amateur dramatic society of the bank where she was working.If you would like to pick up some Theory training you can also do this along with the amateur dramatics. Good Luck

I agree with the above answer to your question. The best place to find out if "you've got it" is in amdram. So many actors come out of acting schools like mechanical robots! The best way to act - (and this is only my personal opinion) is not to act !! Sounds daft - but look at any poorly performed play and it is normally because the players over-act - they are unnatural. Your age is a bonus! because you will have met many people and therefore have gained knowledge of charaters through the best University one can attend - Life ! Mark Jennings.
(Submitted Sunday, October 29, 2000)
I said above that the best way to act was not to act. I had better qualify that. What I mean is one should "become that character" by sitting and studing it. Then when you are that character - you don't have to act it do you! (get it!) Oh yes - my keyboard can't spell Professional ! Mark Jennings

I think I am going to use this song to try-out for my high school musical. Can anyone suggest HOW I should sing this - any actions I should incorporate? What should I be feeling-happiness/sadness? does only one person sing the majority in the begining then w/ chorus or is it 2 females? My high school is doing How To Succeed this April and try outs are in less than 2 months(before Christmas). I am probably going to try out reading as Rosemary--she seems to fit my own personality in some ways. I have tried out my soph and junior years, but never got in--our casts are rather small--no more than 50. I don't have the strongest voice(I'm soft-spoken) or the best for reaching high notes(and my voice sometimes gets shaky when I sing and I'm nervous) so I was wondering if anyone had suggestions for what other song(s) I could try out to. It has to be from a musical and it shouldn't be longer than 2 minutes. There is a new director this year so he might make us do a song from this show, but any suggestions will help me greatly. Please hurry--I still need to learn the song if I haven't heard it yet. p.s.--I don't take music lessons either--so ANY pointers would be greatly appreciated-especially for projecting my voice and sounding strong and confident and good -I really want to get in my senior year. Thank you so very much. ~ Mare

I have a similar problem to you. I always get nervous when I have to sing for auditions and I never know what to choose. The best idea is to sing something that you are comfortable with. It may not be the most astounding show stopper ever written but that is not normally what audition panels are looking for. If you feel comfortable with the song, you will be able to put your own emotions into it. As for "What I did for Love" look at the lyrics - what do they mean to you? If you feel sad when you hear them then try and incorporate these feelings into your singing. If you get so nervous in auditions that your voice wobbles like mad, I've found that a song which has some speech segments in it works well. I always do "Nothing" also from "A Chorus Line". The initial speech -when directed at the audition panel really grabs their attention. So does a bit of comedy. Of course it depends on the type of impression you want or need to give, but essentially if you feel comfortable with your piece then your potential ability will shine through. Hope this helps. Best of luck with the audition!

I am a director in Toronto, Canada and I have also performed twice in How to Succeed. I would suggest that you avoid "What I Did For Love" or anything from "A Chorus Line", these songs are difficult to sing well unless you are a very experienced singer. Instead, focus on your strengths ... if you consider yourself more of an actor than a singer, choose a piece that has more character singing in it, also you might be wise to choose something else written by Frank Loesser, or something in a similar style to "How to Succeed". Rosemary is an ingenue, but she is written quite campy, almost a send-up of an ingenue. Why not do something from "Guys and Dolls" (Adelaide's Lament, If I Were A Bell). Or maybe something from "The Pajama Game" (I'm not at all in Love). One more suggestion: Happily Ever After or Shy (both from "Once Upon A Mattress" and both terrific audition pieces for a comedic role. Hope this helps. Merle Garbe

Dear members concerning blacking up in Shows, I would like to hear your views. I have been blacking up as Al Jolson in Concerts, Revues and Musicals for 12 years and sung over 1,000 songs. I also run a Theatre Company and have recently come up against critical complaints from three members concerning my blacking up. As far as i am concerned the blacking up (also like the Black and white minstrels) is an act of portrayal a character/s and is not at all racist. Al Jolson did it as a tribute to the black music of the time. It is not the black people that object, but bigoted white people, who have nothing better to do. My recent concerns come when we are to stage a song called 'In Dahomey' from "Showboat" and with me opening our annual garden party in July as Al Jolson. Revivals of the Minstrels was accepted in the mid 1990's and Brian Conley as Al in the three hit Musical "Jolson". If ever there was a ban on blacking up, it must be made clear that NO CHARACTER WHAT SO EVER, should be portrayed in a Musical, there should not be just one colour banned. This would not only stop "Showboat" but other Musicals such as "Anything goes" (Chinamen), "Annie get your gun" (Red Indians)"Robinson Crusoe" (Man Friday)and many other Musicals that include colours from different countries. This world of policically correct is getting out of hand and never should such a ban ever be made law. I will continue to portray Al Jolson as i always have, until i die or able. Only one Theatre in Plymouth has a ban (Barbican Theatre) and all others including the Theatre Royal, could not care less.Please resolve my plea as i would like to inform my biogoted members. Many thanks, yours sincerely, David. D J Bailey E-Mail: david_bailey@btinternet.com

Hi all, There appear to be many messages on here from people wanting to join amdram groups but finding it difficult to get into any. My advice is that you go to your local public library (if there is a central branch rather than a neighbourhood one you have more chance). Ask them for a list of societies in your area. They normally have something though it is often left behind the desk. Failing this look out for posters or leaflets advertising local theatre groups. They normally have the address of their ticket secretary on them. If you contact them they can put you in touch with the society secretary/president who an then tell you a bit about the society. You can find leaflets in libraries, theatres. Thirdly, try writing to the actual theatre - their marketing officer is probably the best contact. Ask them for contact addresses for any societies that may perform at their theatre. It is best to contact the smaller theatres in the area as they are more likely to have amdram shows. Finally, (perhaps this should have been first) look out for amdram shows happening in your area and go to them. This gives you the opportunity to see what they are like in performance and to meet a few of their members. There are always a few members front of house that you can get some details from, sometimes the programmes advertise for new members, and then you can always stay in the bar and look for cast members afterwards!!! Hope this helps anyone that was looking. Final word: Keep trying until you find a group. Amateur dramatics needs people to keep it going. It is one of the best ways of gaining experience, confidence and friends. Maybe we'll see you in the limelight soon. Be sure to post what you are performing in on this site!!!

dialogueprods@compuserve.com URGENT: looking for old actor for professional production of "Merlin" in at Riverside Studios Hammer Dear Amateurdramatic-team, Our theatre company dialogue productions is staging the English premiere of the international hitplay "Merlin" by multi-award winning German playwright Tankred Dorst. For a key scene in this high profile production,we are looking for an old actor for a short but hugely significant cameo appearance. As this extra actor is not in the budget, we are hoping to find an old amateur actor in London who would be interested. The scene we need this actor for: The Round Table is well established, all the battles have been fought, the great heroes are quite pleased with themselves. The younger generation, however, are not too impressed with their achievement and start to mock them, saying they don't want to grow old and boring. Merlin, who joins the scene, offers them to actually see their old age here and now. One of the young knights, Sir Beauface, accepts the challenge. He puts his face in a bowl of water Merlin has tampered with, and after some seconds during which all the knights stand around him, counting, cheering, he lifts his face from the bowl as an old man. Stunned silence. The old Sir Beauface hs lived his whole life within a few seconds and now tells the knights about it. Then he collapses in his chair, dead. To make this wonderful magic scene work, we really do need an old actor who can slip in among the cheering knights and take the young knight's place, so if there is any way you can help us find this actor, PLEASE let us know as soon as possible. We are rehearsing for 5 weeks from 4th June, but would only need the acotr to come in a few times during that period. The run is from 12 July to 4th August, with 2 matinees (17th/20th July,

The theatre seats only 300. The plan put forward is to have cameras on the MD with the image available to those on stage, and the image of the stage available to the MD in return.

I have just completed a run in West Side Story where the Orchestra was behind the set. The cast could see the MD on a number of monitors in the auditorium, the MD had 2 monitors showing a whole stage view and a close up of the centre section. It helped balance the sound but left the cast feeling a little vunerable at times, some of the pick-ups are quite hard and the lack of eye-contact did have an effect on timing. Once we had got used to it the system worked quite well. The cast need to rehearse any pick-ups/entrances nuch more if they know that they won't see the MD. It helps if you do the same at rehearsals - ie have the MD somewhere out of sight of the cast.

I have just come across this section of the site and I know that it is unlikely that the 34 year old who asked the below (Question - How can I become a professional actress) two years ago may never read this reply but I would like to take this opportunity to give a reply. Perhaps somebody in the same position as she was may gain valuable information from my reply. Firstly age is no barrier to becoming an actress - a successful professional or somebody who thoroughly enjoys the challanges that can be encoutered at an amateurdramatics society. Ask yourself this question: Why do you want to become an actress. If your reply has anything to do with the financial benefits then please stay in your current employment. If your reply has anything to do with either passion, love or talent then please read on. Passion equalls blood sweat and tears, that is rehersals and experimenting with different sides of your personality through the use of playing different characters. Love is simply the love of theatre or film. Talent is your qualification in this business. If you have a full time job please do not leave it and jump into drama training. My advice is to firstly join an amateurdramtics society or drama club. You will then see if you have any of the above qualities that I have explained. If you then feel this is your path in life then and only then join an acredited drama school or college in London I have seen students who have had various careers before training to become actors, many have been in their 50's. It is important that at this stage you can gain a qualification in drama this will show directors of your comitment to your craft. Finally the secret to success is this - you must be seen! It is no good if you have the look that a director wants and he will never see you. So you must get yourself seen by professionals this will then enable you to go for auditions for professional work. Or even be discoverd as they say. To achieve this and be seen by the REAL professionals in the industry I would advise you to have your photograph displayed in the Database of Actors at ACTING-UP. This is a website that has been designed by professional directors in theatre and film in the USA, Canada and the United Kingdom. They also display quality jobs free of charge to all actors who have the photographs displayed on the Database of Actors. The good thing for you is that they except entries from student actors as well as professionals. The website for the Databse of Actors is at ACTING-UP just visit www.acting-up.net

At the beginning of the 20th. century the Clarion movement gave birth to the Clarion Drama Groups/Societies which flourished across the whole of Gt. Britain (I have found no trace as yet in Ireland.

I need some old-fashioned manually operated sound effects equipment for a play. Now that most effects are created digitally, I'm finding it difficult to get hold of things like a wind machine, thunder sheet, crash box etc etc which are needed for their visual aspects more than the actual sound effects themselves. I have found some instructions on the Internet on how to construct the above, but before starting down that route, I wondered did anyone have such things cluttering up their attic that they wanted to get rid of? If not, does anyone know where I could get hire them(desperate last resort, of course!). Any information would be appreciated. Many thanks Nigel (nigel.holloway@off-the-wall-plays.co.uk)
