Rising Sun Performance Company
Seeking Talented, imaginative & Fun Directors for New Play Reading Series
The Reading series is intended to create new artistic relationships with Guest Directors, Playwrights and Actors as well as provide a fun and engaging night for our audiences.
This is a great way to create a working relationship with our company and for us to get to know your work. We are looking for actors interested in collaborating and creating artistic & audience relationships.
Staged Play Readings will be performed in a bar, we will be performing short 10-15 minute plays in a staged reading format that will engage and excite our audience, go well with a few drinks and allow for socializing and fun in between plays. Each month will have a new theme that all plays will interconnect and relate to each other in some way.
We are particularly looking for strong, flexible Directors who want to work in a collaborative, Ensemble driven environment and who will be committed to the long term success of the project. Artists should have an understanding of the Off-Off Broadway/Indie theatre aesthetic. If hired Guest artists are asked to actively promote/market and support the production in other ways when possible. Directors are also required to attend the actual reading and interact/collaborate with the playwrights.
