From Behind the Table: General Auditions
“The General Audition“
I never expect anyone to be brilliant in an audition. It is almost an impossibility. Was anyone ever brilliant while acting with a chair? What I do hope to find someone who seems capable and someone with whom I might want to spend four weeks in a rehearsal hall” – Michael Shamata, Artistic Director of The Belfry Theatre, (Victoria)
From Behind the Table: The General Audition Part 2 – The Interview
“Generally, I just really enjoy it when actors come in with a positive attitude and are excited to share their work with us. That makes it a pleasure to audition them and a good experience for us as well…if actors are relaxed and are able to share who they are with us, the chances of us using them is much better. “ – Mieko Ouchi, Artistic Director of Concrete Theatre (Edmonton)
