The Rehearsal, a 17th century play (satire comedy) written by the 2nd Duke of Buckingham (rake and wit extraordinaire) is being performed the last 2 weekends of this July at Cité des Arts (downtown Lafayette).
We are seeking actors and supporters to keep the ball rolling. Actors can show up for auditions May 9, 10 (7-9 pm) and 12 (Sat. 12 noon - 3pm) at Cité des Art. Sense of comedy (dark), preferably.
Supporters are desperately needed and can pledge partial ownership of show online at Kickstarter.com (then enter "The Rehearsal") Your sponsorship is most appreciated, as funding for the fabulous original costumes for silly men in wigs, tights and lace hankies are tantamount to the show's posturing and general goofiness is unique and costs $.
Please help us launch this one-of-a-kind play (no prior performances of 17th century plays, nor Morris Dancers, Hobby Horses, Kings and Pretty Men frolicking about).
Spread the word. Every little bit does count. Joint pledges work well, too.
Also, one Assistant Director position is open. No previous theatre experience, just organization skills.
Thank you!
