We here at SLANT, having founded the company itself a mere two days ago, are planning to mount a production of Bertolt Brecht's "Mother Courage and Her Children" sometime during the spring of 2004. For those of you in the area, a general interest meeting/audition time is scheduled for the 21st of January at Weaver Street Market in Carrboro, at 6:00. We'd love to see you there!
Okay, so we're currently looking to fill the following positions for "Courage"...
Producers
Actors
Musicians
Money People
Publicity
Dramaturg
Design Team
Technicians (including Tech Director, Lighting, Sound, Costume and Set)
People willing to serve on the Company's advisory board.
That's all we need so far. As the positions begin to be filled, we plan either to remove them from the above list, or to write in the names of the people chosen for the particular jobs (in case any of them forget).
Also, for all you prospective actors out there, here's the list of characters in "Courage".
