Auditions: Dora Wasserman Yiddish Theatre – Puppeteers, Tales from Odessa

by QDF

The Dora Wasserman Yiddish Theatre is looking for puppeteers for its upcoming production of “Tales from Odessa” based on the stories of  Isaac Babel.

The play, directed by Audrey Finkelstein , with music by Josh Dolgin, aka Socalled, will be performed at the Segal Theatre from June 16 to July 7.

Rehearsals take place in the evenings and on Sundays.

We are looking for students in theatre, dance, or movement arts who are interested in performing shadow puppetry. The performance will be physically demanding and diverse forms of manipulation will be used, including body shadows, the manipulation of shadow puppet cut-outs, as well as visible onstage manipulation. The shadow puppeteers will be performing as part of the ensemble, such that the shadow puppeteers are manipulators while being part of the onstage action wherever necessary.

Please send your cvs with a brief statement of intent outlining your puppetry experience and what interests you about the project.

Please send cvs directly aafinkelstein@hotmail.com
