Audtiions for Horror Musical

Start:     Aug 5, '06 2:00p
End:     Aug 5, '06 9:00p
Location:     Bulwagang Amado Hernandez (Conference Room), Upper Ground Floor, CCP Main Building, CCP Complex
Tanghalang Pilipino announces open auditions for the spine-tingling play, BAKERETTA (Ghost Operetta), to be directed by the playwright himself, multi-awarded screenwriter and one of Japan’s most exciting theater directors, Chong Wishing.

Auditions will be held on August 5, 2006, from 2:00 PM to 9:00 PM, at the Bulwagang Amado Hernandez (Conference Room), Upper Ground Floor, CCP Main Building, CCP Complex, Roxas Blvd., Pasay City.

The director will be in Manila to personally screen male and female actors ages 18 and up. Auditionees must prepare a 3-minute monologue in Filipino from any published local or foreign play, a movement piece and a song. All interested actors must bring their updated resume with their most flattering colored headshot.

Applicants must be available for the production schedule, with rehearsals running for five weeks prior to the opening on October 20, 2006 at the Sinag Arts Studio and a second run at the Tanghalang Huseng Batute (CCP Studio Theater) from November 10 to 26, 2006.

A co-production with the Japan Foundation and Sinag Arts Studio, Bakeretta is a psychological thriller, somewhat in the tradition of Japanese horror films like Ring and The Grudge, but with a quirky, musical twist! An amateur theater company rehearses a modern ghost (bake) story – The Ghost in the Toilet and the mounting pressures of opening night get mixed up with
their personal dramas, comedies and horrors.

For inquiries, please call the TP office at 832-3661 or 832-1125 locals 1620/1621.
