SEATTLE COLD READERS INVENTS A NEW SHOW!

Bringing back quality, integrity and community to live theater.

Often live theater attempts to ‘shock and awe’ to attract an audience.
What has happened to the honestly written scene and the raw talent that
is demanded to portray it? What about acts that broaden cultural awareness?

Eileen Dey, M.A., Artistic Director for the Seattle Cold Readers is
answering Seattle’s need for a new kind of show: Low-cost, high quality
live theatrical acts. Each month, for only $6 admission, patrons can
watch professional actors perform locally submitted scripts as if they
were at a live audition. In between acts folk singers, tap dancers,
jugglers, magicians and the like entertain. The end of the evening, the
audience votes on the best performance. Awards and door prizes complete
the night.

The Seattle Cold Readers performs a different show every 3rd Thursday
(8/20 is our next one) 8-9:30pm at the Spitfire Bar and Grill at 2219
4th Avenue in Seattle. Visit www.seattlecoldreaders.com

Honky Tonk!
June 26th – July 26th, 2009 at the Market Theater in historic Pike Place Market

Country western music and blue collar culture slam headfirst into improv for this brand new, original, improvised play created by Tim Tracey, and starring a cast of Seattle's best musical improvisers.

Each performance is like its own country music song, complete with beer guzzling, heart ache, fighting, and friendship. The characters will create meaningful stories, that even city dwellers can relate too, with a few emotion inspired, improvised songs thrown in for good measure. This ain't no musical – but sometimes a cowboy's gotta croon. Think Hank Williams and Waylon Jennings, on a couple of barstools in Enumclaw, slamming back whiskey and telling tales.

Fueled by audience suggestions, and completely improvised, no performance of Honky Tonk can possibly be the same. So pull on those Wranglers and cowboy boots, because this dark, beer soaked, dramatic comedy awaits you at the Market Theater in the historic Pike Place Market.

Honky Tonk Players: Derek Kavan, Rebecca Kavan, Chelsea Binta, Jana Healy, Kristen Rau, Michael Bils, Jay Hitt, Susie Simpkins & Elicia Wickstead, Brandon Felker, Molly Arkin of Blood Squad.
Musical Direction by Ron Hippe

Honky Tonk runs June 26th – July 26th, 2009 at the Market Theater in the historic Pike Place Market. Shows are at 8:30p Friday & Saturday; 7:00p on Sundays. Tickets are $10 & available at www.unexpectedproductions.org or through brownpapertickets.com
If you are a member of the press, please contact Jay jayhitt@msn.com or Rachel unexpectedproductionsseattle@gmail.com for complimentary tickets.
Honky Tonk is sponsored by the Tractor Tavern in beautiful Ballard.

5/21 Sponsor of The Seattle Cold Readers

2009-04-27T13:21:00.000-07:00

Greetings from Seattle Cold Readers!

I'll be taking the Friday evening class with Karen Kohlhaas. She is the featured sponsor for this month's show. Welcome to Seattle Karen!

She tells me that there is still some space open in the Seattle workshops - feel free to contact her to talk further at MonologuesKarenK@aol.com

Actors:· Do you want to enter the audition room with confidence and ease every time?· Do you want to audition like a bold adventurer instead of a worried perfectionist?· Do you want to know you have chosen the best possible monologue for each audition you go on?· Do you want a solid monologue audition technique that leaves you free to act and to play?

NYC Director/Teacher/Author Karen Kohlhaas teaches at Theatre Puget Sound:· Friday evening May 8th (Monologue & Audition Technique intro)· Saturday May 9th (All-Day Monologue Workshop)· Sunday May 10th (All-Day "Fearless Cold Reading & Audition Technique")"The audition process is an abomination...but turn it on its head, and we have, as Ms. Kohlhaas suggests, an opportunity to investigate and improve one's understanding of script analysis, staging, and self-promotion. What a good idea." -David Mamet, Playwright, Director, Producer/Creator "The Unit," from his introduction to Karen Kohlhaas' bookThe Monologue Audition: A Practical Guide for Actors

Karen Kohlhaas, author of three books on Monologues and Auditioning, is an Off-Broadway director, a co-founder of New York's award-winning Atlantic Theater Company, and a senior teacher at the Atlantic Acting School's conservatory for New York University undergraduates and professional actors. She will be in Seattle May 8-10 teaching her Monologue Workshop and "Fearless Cold Reading & Audition Technique."

Listen to an interview with Karen atwww.EverythingActingPodcast.com.You may already know Karen from her website www.monologueaudition.com which features The Overdone Monologue Surveys(Female and Male), or from her books or DVD (see trailers)."I learned more in your class than I have learned in any class I have taken since I graduated. I have a confidence that I carry now with me into auditions that I have never had." -Caroline Slaughter, Los Angeles/New
York actor and former studentThere are three ways to participate:

INTRODUCTORY EVENING:Friday evening May 8th, 6-9pm · Monologue clinic: Feedback on material selection, acting choices and physical choices.· Intro to "Fearless Cold Reading": Know the most important place to focus in cold reads (and ALL auditions with sides) and how it can change your auditions from self-conscious to truly Fearless!· "Entering the Audition Room 101": This intro gives you the physical framework to enter the audition room with confidence and ease as a BASELINE-regardless of nerves or the stakes of the audition. You will see & experience distinct changes in the quality of actors' entrances with 3 simple adjustments.· Material choice for auditions: Q&A based on Karen's new book "How to Choose a Monologue for Any Audition." Also: What is a "Hello, This is Me Monologue," and when is it the best choice for an audition?This evening can be taken on its own ($25).

MONOLOGUE WORKSHOP INTENSIVE DAY:Saturday, May 9th, 9am-6pmLearn to love to audition with monologues! This workshop shows you the steps to Karen's unique system that she has taught to thousands of college and auditioning actors in the US and internationally: Using a new monologue or one you have already auditioned with, learn to DIRECT, ACT, and AUDITION with Monologues, and take the technique with you.10 actors only. Some preparation is required. (FEE: $175, includes Friday intro evening). "I have to say my fear of monologues is officially gone and I welcome the challenges they offer in an audition. I had to learn a monologue from the play the night before the audition. I tackled it, had 2 callbacks and YAY! I am stoked-I am playing Masha in Chekhov's THREE SISTERS." -Katie Rayle, New York actor and former student

FEARLESS COLD READING & AUDITION TECHNIQUE INTENSIVE DAY:Sunday May 10th, 9am-6pm Audition as an adventurer, not a perfectionist! Get out of your own way and have fun in the audition room. FEARLESS COLD READING: How to immediately transport your auditors into the story and make them forget you are holding the script! Karen's energetic 10-point cold reading technique includes specific tools that are valuable for ALL auditions. Includes how to excel at cold reading with great AND terrible readers. FEARLESS AUDITION TECHNIQUE: Master the art of entering, interacting in, and exiting the audition room with graciousness, confidence and ease, every time. 12 actors only. "Befores" and "Afters" are videotaped for verifiable results! (FEE: $150 includes Friday intro evening). "Well, look at what taking your Fearless Cold Reading class has done for me: I've been offered the gigand I'm POSITIVE it's because of the ease and confidence I got from your workshop. So thank you!" -Keong Sim, NYC actor and former studentEntire weekend tuition: $300 (includes Friday night intro)What actors are saying about Fearless Cold Reading & Audition Techique:"I am currently rehearsing a show, and one of the producers pulled me aside to tell me my audition/cold read was one of the best she had seen in the auditions, and that obviously whatever audition classes I had taken paid off. Of course this came only weeks after completing your cold reading class. So, thank you again, I am definitely more confident walking into auditions." -Jason Barker, NYC actor and former student"Your techniques have indeed transformed the experience of auditioning for me. I've since been cast in two plays and an independent film. Thank you!" -Rachel Crouthamel, NYC actor and former student"I have gotten a callback for almost every audition I've been to since taking your course! I got into a show right away." -Marek Sapieyevski, NYC actor and former studentWhat actors are saying about the Monologue Workshop:Another audition... got another callback. And that's the result of only two classes! Love your system... love it. Every monologue I've previously discarded now looks to have serious potential. Awesome. -Jennifer Lucas, Los Angeles actor and former studentYour class was so interesting and incredibly helpful to me. I can't believe I have four monologues that I actually like to do. And I am looking FORWARD to beginning to go out and audition.....what???!!-Sacha Yanow, NYC actor and former studentI was at an audition today, and after I was finished the director commented on how interesting my choice was, and went on to say that he just saw hundreds of the same thing over and over again, and what a relief to see something fresh. -Liz Eggers, L.A./NYC actor and former student
