Yesterday I posted the lamest blog entry ever. I will admit that I just did a quick “cut & paste” from our entry on ChicagoPlays.
So I wanted to take a sec and elaborate a bit on this announcement of our season auditions. We’re not quite ready to announce our plays for next year, but I can tell you that I’m really excited about the direction we’re heading. We’ve picked another exciting theme to unify our explorations next year, and it’s one that I think really speaks to who and where we are as a company and as a society right now.
I’m excited by the number of responses we’ve already gotten to our audition posting. But we’re not done yet! Our submission deadline isn’t until May 23rd, which means we have a full week and a half to keep the headshots and resumes rolling in. If you’re thinking about submitting and you’re reading this blog, I hope you will send us your stuff. Here’s the info again about our upcoming generals for our 8th (yes, 8!) season:
