♕ |[81]| Bid the players make haste

[had_not_lived]

It's been about a week now, since the City came back together... and it really does seem like things are back to normal. I was afraid the bookstore would be ruined-- that the shelves might have cracked when they were all made of glass-- but it doesn't look like there was much damage.

I'm hoping that things will stay normal-- normal for the City, I mean-- for a while, so we can get back on track with the play! With everything falling apart and turning to sand, and then... well, of course we didn't get very far.

So, I'm happy to say we'll be holding another set of auditions for Like Clockwork this Friday-- anyone who couldn't make it the first time, please, come join us now! We still have plenty of roles to fill, and for anyone who's nervous about being on-stage, there's a lot to do behind the scenes, too!

We'll see you there.


[ooc; info post on the play is here, and the previous IC post about it is here~ We still need 2 male leads and 2 female leads. Tags when I get home, mostly. <3 TL;DR post coming this evening with more logistics!]

You need anyone on lights or sound?

Hey, you're little Wilson!

Sorry, sorry. Um. Do you need anyone to paint things?

[had_not_lived]

We've had some interest in the technical side of things, but we can always use more!

Though right now, what we really need are more actors...

[born_nameless]

Believe me, my talents are strictly behind the scenes.

[He looks... well, more resigned than sheepish, but a little sheepish nonetheless.]

It's Neil-- Neil Perry, actually. We aren't related, though I get that a lot.

We have at least one person who's offered to help with sets, but we can always use more! Though there are plenty of opportunities to be on stage, as well.

[he_who_kills]

Me join!

[had_not_lived]

Of course! I already have you on my list. I'm glad you're still interested!

[had_not_lived]

Have you ever tried acting? A lot of people are reluctant at first, but it's a lot of fun.

Sorry. It's nice to meet you, Neil. I'm Penny and I promise I won't call you little Wilson ever again.

On stage? Acting? Like, in a talking way?

[had_not_lived]

The pleasure's mine.

[See? No hard feelings.]

Sure, in a talking way-- though I mean, there're a few parts that have hardly any lines, but it's actually a lot of fun when you get into it-- don't be nervous!

[Neil is awesome.]

Okay--it can't hurt, right? And it's this Friday?

[forhishonor]

Is there even a theater here?

video;

[had_not_lived]

That's right!

[had_not_lived]

We've held shows at the Opera House, mostly, in the past-- or outdoors. We don't quite do regular productions, but of course the more people who are interested and excited, the more we can put on!

[anunluckypenny]

Then I'll see you Friday, Neil.

[had_not_lived]

I can't wait.

[born_nameless]

Memorizing lines, trying to stand on the right square of tape, all those people staring? Nah, give me a good EQ board.

[had_not_lived]

Well, I don't know a thing about sound or lights-- so I guess it's just as well.

[born_nameless]

I'm assuming this is strictly an amateur gig?

[had_not_lived]

Well, we've done a few plays before, so we're not totally inexperienced, but overall, yes.

[born_nameless]

I'm not judging or anything, just figuring out if this'll be pro bono, which is okay in this case. I happen to like plays.

[had_not_lived]

Oh, well, of course-- we're all volunteers.

[born_nameless]

Well, sign me up. Name's Sparrow.

[had_not_lived]

Wonderful! It's great to meet you-- I'm Neil.

Do you have a lot of experience with this kind of thing?

[born_nameless]

A play? No. But, I used to work in a nightclub sometimes, DJing or putting together the video mix. Didn't usually do the lighting, but I can.
