Re: Light Opera Works 2014 Season

I got an email "officially" inviting me to the dance call? Whatever that means?

Re: Light Opera Works 2014 Season

I actually got it on Friday? Can't tell if this is a callback of sorts  or just fun?

Re: Light Opera Works 2014 Season

Public Service Announcement: Don't be fooled into thinking that just because it's a callback, you won't be asked to sing yet another song from your book, or be asked for yet another headshot and resume! (I know that it's in the "good little actor handbook" to always have those things with you, but sometimes  you don't get expressly told to bring those things to a callback, and it's easy to allow yourself to believe that because it's a callback, you don't particularly need them. I've seen a few people get burned at LOW by this exact scenario...)

Re: Light Opera Works 2014 Season

Echoing what appj001 said up there, LOW is a little different in how they do callbacks... invited/asked to come to a dance call is NOT a callback, nor is not getting called for dance a rejection.  They will start doing invited callbacks at the end of dance calls being wrapped up.

Re: Light Opera Works 2014 Season

The dance call is to whos got the pain from damn yankees. Original Fosse choreo. They also asked the men and women if they can do any tumbling or tricks beyond a cartwheel. Handsprings, and things of that nature.

Or any news on female callbacks for Damn Yankees (Lola)?

Re: Light Opera Works 2014 Season

I know there have been callbacks for some of the female leads/supporting roles in Damn Yankees (not certain about Lola), as well as Fiddler and Merry Widow.

Re: Light Opera Works 2014 Season

Do we think there will be more callbacks after tonight's dance call or are they essentially all out already

Re: Light Opera Works 2014 Season

some people stayed, but it seems like they were people who hadn't previously sung or done sides.
