WORK WITH POPE.L!

Calling all adventurous, dynamic, risk-taking performers for some groundbreaking creative collaboration! Pope.L needs a cast of 18 performers and a film/lighting crew for his residency’s culminating performance shoot (filmed performance) at Haverford College on Wednesday, March 26.

Pairing the experiences and identities of civil rights martyr Emmett_Till and Spielberg’s  E.T._the_Extra-Terrestrial, Pope.L’s innovative performance piece is a murky exploration of curiosity, misunderstanding, alienation and fear.

Beginning Tuesday, January 20, Eli and I will be tabling with audition/event details and sign ups in the DC during meals. Auditions will be held the evenings of January 25, 26, & 27 in 10 minute slots. Pope.L is looking for a random, yet enthusiastic and dedicated assortment of performing talent. Beatboxer? Flautist? Clown? Soprano? Mime? Improvisor? Magician? Drummer? Hummer? Ballerina? We want you in addition to ever-valuable technically talented camerapeople and lighting gurus!

As part of the event you’d need to commit to rehearsals the few days before the performance (more details to come), but that’s it! FAST & FURIOUS. Plus, you’ll be privy to the chic among friends happenings throughout the artists’ residencies.

This is quite a unique opportunity for performers at Haverford; think it over and sign up! Tell your limelight-loving friends!

Feel free to contact Ali – aking@haverford.edu or Eli – nbloodpa@haverford.edu for more information!
