"The Corridor" Private Immersive Event

 

Gig Details

Event: Private immersive experience designed for Young Professionals Organization (YPO) of Maryland. Takes place within a party hosted for the organization's members.
Date: Saturday, March 14, 2020

Location: Culture House DC, 700 Delaware Ave SW, Washington, DC 20024
Commitment: We will do our best to ask of you no more than 6 hours of rehearsal, including day-of rehearsal. The immersive experience will last about 2 hours, and call time will likely be somewhere around 1 hour beforehand. We also will ask that you wear clothing from your personal wardrobe as part of your costume.

ACCESSIBILITY: Unfortunately, the venue has areas that are only accessible by stairs. If stairs present an obstacle to you but you're able and willing to use stairs with assistance, assisting you with the stairs can easily be worked into the performance.

 

Audition Details

Due date: Submit by this Friday, February 14. (You should hear back from us no later than Monday, February 17.)

Character: Chamber Character
Asks: Please submit 1) your resume, 2) a video for the below "Acting" prompt, and 3) a video for the below "Dancing" prompt.

Acting

Please send a 1-2 minute improvised monologue (from a cell phone in any quiet room is fine) responding to one* of these prompts:

A. Your character is a demon. Convince someone to make a decision that will put them in Hell.
B. The attached YouTube video is a video of someone telling a story badly.  Retell the story as though you're telling someone a secret, making the story sound better without changing the facts.
C. You, or a character you create, explain to a small child why they shouldn't obey their parents.

*You can do more than one monologue, but please play a different character in each if you do.


Dancing
Please send a 30 seconds - 1 minute video of you dancing as though you're in a Hell-themed club conjuring up a demon. (A cell phone video is perfectly fine.) You can use any style or mixture of styles you'd like, though stay true to the idea that you're in a club. Feel free to switch among styles if you have more than one idea you'd like to show.
