Auditions: The Orphanage. A new exciting
Youth Storytelling Ensemble is being developed at Abbotsford Convent. In its
initial stage of development I’m calling for auditions to create a preliminary
ensemble to prepare a Christmas show to be shown at the Convent, to publicize
what a youth storytelling ensemble can be, engaging potential young performance
storytellers and the wider community.
I’ve applied for funding through City of
Yarra to support developing this as an ongoing part of the artistic and
cultural life of the community. My goal is to develop and mentor an ensemble
that operates as its own supportive creative community for young emerging
performance artists/storytellers.
My background is as a professional
storyteller/actor/director based at Abbotsford Convent, with experience in
storytelling, performance making and arts education. The project has received
enthusiastic support from Abbotsford Convent, St. Martins’ Youth Theatre and
Platform Youth Theatre.
Please circulate this call for auditions
through your networks.

Applications close: Midnight Wednesday 28th
August. Auditions held: Saturday 31st August.
