Black Books by Blak Yak
Mon, 19 Feb 2007, 01:03 pmHi,
Blak Yak, in association with KADS, will be holding auditions for its upcoming season of Black Books on Sunday the 25th of Feb at the Blue Room in Northbridge, from 9 to 2.
The three lead roles have already been cast, Blak Yak was going to do Black Books last year, we held the auditions, cast the play and then for various reasons had to put it on hold, but there's still a bunch of great roles available. Nick Donald, recipient of last year's Best Director trophy at Dramafest, will be directing. He's looking for a talented, dedicated, group of actors (both male and female) who can play multiple roles.
Performances will be in Kalamunda at the Town Square Theatre. For more information check out http://www.theatre.asn.au/audition/2007/black_books
There's still a few audition times available, so if you're interested please contact me either at melissamerchant@aapt.net.au or on 0404913018.

Shoving Opinions

You guys. Theatre's all about choice surely. You all seem bent on shoving your own ideas about "what is theatre" down other people's throats. What's the matter with adapting a TV show for stage? Kudos to Nick Donald I reckon - what a job! Why shouldn't he try his hand and then perhaps, with some newfound confidence - eventually write his own stuff? And besides, they all had MASSIVE fun doing it and if some other people wanted to have a bit of fun watching their product - terrif! Theatre is all about live performance and so you choose to see what you want to see and let other people watch what they enjoy.
Adaptations of adaptations on film are thrust upon us every new season release but people still flock to see them. Why should theatre be any different?
Keep up the creativity Blak Yak and thanks for bringing us product that other groups don't - wherever that next show might be!
