| For anyone interested, Austin Shakespeare is having auditions on June 22 &
25 for the "Scottish Play". They need 4 children 11-16 to play 9-10 year
olds in the play. The show will run at the Long Center Sept. 9-21. Contact
austix@austix.com to arrange an audition time. Adults need to memorize 20
lines from the show, but ask if they would prefer to have you read from a
scene or do a prepared Shakepeare audition.

Thanks to everyone for an amazing Celebration of Theatre on May 9! If you
would like to Caitlin Barfield's wonderful Power Point again, it is on the
Student Page of the Grisham website under Photos. It is worth watching
again and again - even without the sound!
Broadway Across America is bringing some great musicals to Austin in 2009.
You can find out more at their site. One not to miss is WICKED which will
play in August of 2009.
The Long Center is also bringing in some great shows - including the
musical, THE DROWSY CHAPERONE. The show runs August 20-24, 2008 - and
tickets are on sale NOW! It won 5 Tony Awards on Broadway.
There are some wonderful Theatre camps this summer - especially at the State
Theatre and St. Edward's University - for those who are interested.
Zilker Park has some great free shows. Shakespeare's MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING
plays May 1-25. Later this summer, Zilker Summer Musicals will present
DISNEY'S BEAUTY AND THE BEAST. Chisholm Trail Theatre teacher, Dan
Sullivan, plays the Beast. He is amazing!
There are also some film making camps as well.
For more information, contact Mrs. Dickson at Susan_Dickson@austin.rr.com
Thanks!
