All in a Day Theatre Festival

Who:This production is co-produced by Dreamwell Theatre of Iowa City and City Circle Acting Company of Coralville.

What: All in a Day Theatre Festival

Where and When: Saturday, August 23, 2008 8:00pm at the United Action for Youth Center, 355 Iowa Avenue, Iowa City. If coming from outside Iowa City, Take I-80 to the Dubuque St. exit and go south to Iowa Ave. Turn left (east) on to Iowa Ave and it’s about a block down. This event was rescheduled due to the flooding.

How it works: On Friday, the night before the performance, six writers, six directors and a host of actors will come together to create six original plays in 24 hours. They will be presented at 8 pm Saturday night after a whirlwind of creative mayhem.

My Bigfoot Dreams Crushed.

Before Chewbacca came into my life, Leonard Nemoy brought Bigfoot into my life with the show “In search of”.   It was a catalyst for my imagination.  Pondering the possibilities of what is yet to be discovered.    Last week the story broke of the guys in Georgia finding the body of a Bigfoot.   Deep down I truly wished it was real.   The skeptic in me predicted it wasn’t, but come on… Why not believe?   What’s the trouble in letting your imagination escape, especially in today’s world of seemingly constant worry?    It was a hoax.

JIM MCDONOUGH’S HOLIDAY GRANDE 2008 AUDITIONS

This is from Alisabeth Carraways Myspace Blog:

JIM MCDONOUGH’S HOLIDAY GRANDE 2008 AUDITION NOTICE:

Exciting plans are in progress for Jim McDonough’s “Holiday Grande 2008” to be performed on three weekends, from November 29 through December 14. For the past five years, we have been thrilling audiences with beautiful Christmas music, making this event a holiday tradition for thousands of families. This year is no exception, as we take this stage production to some of the most beautiful venues in Iowa, on our five city tour.

Allen Koepke, musical director, will be conducting our 15 piece orchestra, featuring “Iowa’s Own Pianist” and recording artist, Jim McDonough. The cast of musicians would not be complete without very talented singers and dancers, choreographed by Michelle Philgreen.

Auditions for young adult singers and dancers will take place at St. Mark’s Lutheran Church,
8300 C. Avenue NE (use the north entrance of the church) in Cedar Rapids on the following dates:

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 4:00-8:00 PM
MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 6:30-9:30 PM

Please come to auditions in dance attire, and have a song ready to perform. Auditions will be scheduled by appointment, by calling 319-360-4892 (Cedar Rapids).

We are planning to employ eight or ten singer/dancers, with a high energy level, who will perform well in an ensemble. Costumes and staging will be very elegant. In the past, many of our performances have been sold out, as we have a large number of groups who travel from surrounding cities and states by motor coach. We are very pleased to present these concerts to benefit Camp Courageous of Iowa.

To schedule an appointment for an audition, or if you have any questions regarding the auditions and concert tour, please call 319-360-4892.

We’re looking forward to seeing you at the auditions!
