Theatre Bristol is “Keeping Drama On – and Off – Stage,” as it announces major rescheduling of its 2020 Season and introduces new fall and holiday auditions and registrations.
Planned auditions for “To Kill a Mockingbird” and “Elf The Musical” are scheduled for 2021, but the show goes on for 2020. We present new ways to perform, enjoy theater and connect with our theater community.
Theatre Bristol kicks off its “Keeping Drama On – and Off – Stage” Series, to foster creativity and expression while we work together to reduce the spread of COVID-19. The #KDOS Series offers three ways to get involved that preserve elements of live performance: auditions, casting, rehearsals, storytelling, acting, community, fun, entertainment and audiences too.
The #KDOS Series launched with Theatre Bristol Playcast, a radio drama throw-back to Theatre Bristol’s days of “Don’t Touch That Dial” available via podcast. Airing information on this podcast service will be announced at www.TheatreBristol.org. Provided interest, a second broadcast featuring the works of Edgar Allan Poe may be included. The holiday production will be Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol” with audition information to come.
Part two of the #KDOS Series is a new program, Reader’s Theatre Bristol. Participate with friends and meet new friends in one of four opportunities for adults, teens, and children, to gather and read dramatic, comedic, classic or new plays online. Beginning in August, enjoy great titles with some of your favorite roles, along with feedback from Theatre Bristol directors, fun and connection with our community, while developing or honing your acting skills.Learn more and register online at www.TheatreBristol.org/audition for the October or December sessions.
Live performance needs an audience, so we present the third part of our #KDOS Series, Quaranteam Theatre! Theatre Bristol invites families, or groups quarantining together, to participate in our Quaranteam Theatre outdoor production. Quaranteams can register now and we will provide direction, scripts, and feedback as you rehearse and prepare for our theater-in-the-park presentation in the fall. Audiences can spread out in their own spaces and enjoy live theater on stage and our community talent. Register your Quaranteam at www.TheatreBristol.org/audition.
