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.

Trinity Student Discount Code

 Hi there – I hope your fall semester is off to a great start!

I’m reaching out to share details about a World Premiere play now running at Trinity Rep through October 5. Cold War Choir Practice is a bold new work featuring original music, espionage, and comedy, all set in the nostalgic glow of a retro roller-skating rink. While it has a nostalgic setting, its themes of power, patriotism, and family make the show extremely timely. The production is receiving raves from critics and audiences alike.

 We’d love if you could help spread the word to your students or campus network. We’re offering unlimited $25 student tickets for all remaining performances. Students can reserve online or by phone using the promo code STUDYBREAK25.

 To purchase:

  1. Head to our website.
  2. Select your performance date
  3. Choose your seats
  4. Enter STUDYBREAK25 when prompted on the discount page during check-out 

About the show: It’s twilight in Ronald Reagan’s America and the specter of nuclear war hangs over the country—but rent is still due on the 1st. When a prominent Black conservative brings his mysteriously ill wife home for the holidays, the unplanned reunion sets long-simmering tensions within the family to boil—and throws each member into a bizarre maze of Reaganomics, Cold War espionage, capitalist cult predation, and… choir practice. Featuring original music and set in the mesmerizing ambiance of a retro roller-skating rink, Cold War Choir Practice celebrates the lengths we go to for those we love.
