THIRD MAINSTAGE PLAY!

Our Mainstage #3 preparations are finally underway!


WHAT'S THE PLAY?
    
Underdog: The Other Other Bronte by Sarah Gordon

WHAT'S IT ABOUT?   
This play is an irreverent look at the Bronte sisters: Charlotte, Emily, and Anne. 
Each of them are high-spirited, foul-mouthed, and have plenty to say. The play tracks their life as they embark on a quest to become groundbreaking authors.

(For those not in the know -- Charlotte wrote Jane Eyre, Emily wrote Wuthering Heights, and Anne wrote The Tenant of Wildfell Hall. Victorian England had big reactions to each of them.)

The play plumbs the depths of sibling relationships, the struggle to be recognized while marginalized, and the cost of ambition.

THE CHARACTERS:
Charlotte:  Ambitious and Crafty
Anne:  Ambitious and Mousy
Emily:  Ambitious and Kind of Crazy (or at least a loose cannon)

Three Ensemble Actors will play multiple character roles, including their brother Branwell (who is Ambitious and Moody), publishers, members of high society, terrible children, and so on.

PERFORMANCE DATES:
February 25 through March 1, 2026

AUDITIONS:
Auditions will be held Sunday, November 30, from 11am - 2pm
Callbacks will be held from 3-4pm.

Auditioners will audition with Monologues from the script.
(In other words, you do not have to prepare an independent monologue.)

Auditioners will need to complete an audition application and sign up for an audition slot. 

If you are not able to make the in-person auditions, please submit a video to Casey Seymour Kim by Friday, November 28, 2025: casey.seymourkim@gmail.com 


AUDITION MONOLOGUES, SIGN-UP SHEET, APPLICATION LINK, AND OTHER INFORMATION WILL BE POSTED BY THIS TUESDAY 11/18/25.

!!URGENT!! ACTORS NEEDED FOR FUNDAMENTALS OF DIRECTING


We need Student Actors!

Students in THTR 425 -- Fundamentals of Directing are working on scenes from She Kills Monsters and Polaroid Stories

We have been able to get some actors, but need your help in filling out other roles.  The scenes will be presented as part of the final for the course. Rehearsal time will be relatively light, since the student directors are only responsible for one scene. 

Class time meets on Mondays and Wednesdays from 4-5:30pm (although your attendance at class is not 100% necessary.). 

The Final Presentation will be Wednesday, December 10 from 4-6pm. (You would need to be available for that day and time.)

We need to fill the following roles:

She Kills Monsters: Agnes, Lillith, Calliope, Chuck

Polaroid Stories:  Orpheus, Persephone.

THTR 091 Info and Links to Freshman Monologue and Padlet Page

VIDEO SUBMISSIONS FOR THTR 091/JURIES ARE DUE BY 

FRIDAY OF NEXT WEEK (OCTOBER 17, 2025)** 

(**Yes, we have extended the deadline by a week.)

This is information about THTR 091 and the end-of-semester juries. This information has already been disseminated, but here it is all in one post -- including the monologue assignment for all Freshmen:

What are the juries?

At the end of each semester, students concentrating in Performance, Musical Theatre, and General Theatre with a Performance Concentration must complete an assignment (performing and filming monologues or songs) and then have a short meeting with Bill Wilson and Casey Seymour Kim by the end of the semester. 
When are they?
Each student has been given an assigned time and day; it is listed in the 091 syllabus handed out at the first general meeting.

If you do not see your name on the list, or are not sure what your assigned time/day is, just let us know and we'll either tell you or figure out a time for you. 
Where are they?
The meetings will be in the BABS (Billie Ann Burell Studio) -- the studio space that is next to the elevator in the Nazarian Center, around the corner of the dance studio and vending machines. Theatre performance classes are held there.
What do I need to do/What is my assignment?
Check the THTR 091 syllabus to confirm what is specifically asked of you for this semester.

Special Note to All Musical Theatre, Performance, and General Theatre Freshman: In your first semester, everyone is assigned the same monologue, which is printed down below. (If you are a General Theatre major with a Technical Design Concentration, this does not apply to you).
1. Film yourself performing your specified material.
2. Upload the video to this padlet page, or send it to Casey Seymour Kim (casey.seymourkim@gmail.com) or Bill Wilson (wwilson@ric.edu.)
3. Please submit this by midterm -- October 17, 2025.
[Gentle Reminder: Part of being a theatre major is checking the RIC Callboard every week for announcements and information about auditions, workshops, talks, rehearsal times, etc.]
*******
Access the monologue for Freshmen, as well as a pdf of the short play at this link. It is very short.
