Back to TopHow many shows does Encore produce in a year?The Encore Repertory Company will generally produce 3 shows annually. A Spring, Fall and Winter Show. Back to TopIs there truth to the rumour that productions are pre-cast?No.
Well it is just that, only a rumor. For all our productions we advertise our
auditions on our web-site, in the Providence Journal, The Valley Breeze and The
Woonsocket Call, The Board and sometimes in the Phoenix ( it's is expensive) so
that we will have a large pool of talent to choose from, and so that our cast
will be the best available for this particular show. Our cast are pretty
consistently composed of about half the cast who are new members to Encore Rep,
with the other half, folks who have performed with us before. With our Spring
production of "My Fair Lady" 4 of the 5 leads were new to Encore. It was a great
show! There are 6 people on the casting committee; the Director, Producer,
Assist. Producer, Musical Director, Choreographer and the Stage Manager. We
cast immediately after the last night of auditions. We do not take
this task lightly. For "The Wizard of Oz" this past Fall over 120 people
auditioned, and it took us until 3:00 a.m. to cast that show. There is always
some lively debate among the casting committee with the object, to select the
best cast possible. We use a number of criteria in the selection process, vocal
quality, ability, projection, experience, stage presence, acting ability,
diction, ability to use the correct accent; if necessary and the appropriate
appearance for a particular role, etc. Do not be discouraged. Others have
audition a few times before they were cast. Hope to see you next week , if you
have any other questions please let me know. Back to Top |
