“Let’s Play Theatre" is looking for actors to be in our upcoming school touring production~ “Romeo and Juliet” (abridged) similar to the video. Actors play multiple roles but with Chinese narration/explanation.
Who are we looking for?
ARC/APRC/Taiwanese ID holders. Native speakers (or near-native) speakers of English with theater acting experience or a strong passion to learn acting for the stage.
How much do we pay?
Our standard payment: NT$1500 per show for new actors (the first 3 shows) and then NT$2000 starting from the 4th show. (The show is 2 hours but it takes 2 hours to set up, 1 hour to pack, plus transportation time. So it usually means the whole day. For rehearsals, there’s a symbolic NT$100 per rehearsal. Seriously, don’t do it for the money. (Having said that, for highly skilled actors there’s still some room for negotiation)
How many times do we rehearse?
For a new production such as this one, we’ll need 10~15 rehearsals. Each rehearsal is 3 hours. Actors are also expected to learn their lines in their own time. It’s a big commitment. Once the casting is made, we'll agree on a rehearsal schedule. So if your schedule is packed already between now and 15th Feb, do not apply.
Where do we rehearse.
8min walk from Dinxi MRT station
When are the shows?
2/15 (Wed) Taoyuan
3/10 (Fri) Taoyuan
5/19 (Fri) Hsinchu
With more shows to be confirmed.
(For our last production, we did over 20 shows all around Taiwan)
Please send in your CV to [email protected]
Be sure to include your name and contact phone number and we'll get in touch with you to arrange for an audition.
What to prepare for the audition?
Perform one of the following monologues. (The casting is gender-blind and color-blind. Feel free to try out for Juliet if you’re a guy and Romeo if you’re a girl)
1. Romeo’s monologue
Romeo:
Oh, she doth teach the torches to burn bright!
It seems she hangs upon the cheek of night
Beauty too rich for use, for earth too dear.
So shows a snowy dove trooping with crows
As yonder lady o'er her fellows shows.
The measure done, I’ll watch her place of stand,
And, touching hers, make blessèd my rude hand.
Did my heart love till now? Forswear it, sight!
For I ne'er saw true beauty till this night.
(taking JULIET’s hand)
If I profane with my unworthiest hand
This holy shrine, the gentle sin is this:
My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand
To smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss.
2. Juliet’s monologue
JULIET:
O Romeo, Romeo! Wherefore art thou Romeo?...
…
'Tis but thy name that is my enemy.
Thou art thyself, though not a Montague.
What’s Montague? It is nor hand, nor foot,
Nor arm, nor face, nor any other part
Belonging to a man. O, be some other name!
What’s in a name? That which we call a rose
By any other word would smell as sweet.
So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call'd,
Retain that dear perfection which he owes
Without that title.
Romeo, doff thy name,
And for that name which is no part of thee
Take all myself.
3. Prince:
PRINCE
Rebellious subjects, enemies to peace,
Profaners of this neighbor-stainèd steel!—
Will they not hear?—What, ho! You men, you beasts,
That quench the fire of your pernicious rage
With purple fountains issuing from your veins,
On pain of torture, from those bloody hands
Throw your mistempered weapons to the ground,
And hear the sentence of your movèd prince.
Three civil brawls, bred of an airy word,
By thee, old Capulet, and Montague,
Have thrice disturbed the quiet of our streets
If ever you disturb our streets again,
Your lives shall pay the forfeit of the peace.
For this time, all the rest depart away.
