![]() Holy cow! All 140 auditions slots for our upcoming production of Aloha, Say the Pretty Girls are full. It happened so quickly, but it's an utter thrill to be seeing so many people for our next show. On the flip side, it also means we've had to turn some auditioners away due to time constraints. Fortunately, we'll have the following two chunks of times set aside specifically for walk-up auditions: Saturday, March 16: 2:30pm - 3:10pm Sunday, March 17: 2:30pm - 3:00pm Auditioners will be seen on a first-come basis during that time. In addition to having those two chunks, we may have occasional slots open up throughout the two audition days based on timing and any no-shows. Those fill-ins will also be seen on a first-come basis. We unfortunately cannot guarantee we'll see everyone who comes. Auditions will be held at the Serbian Cultural & Arts Center, 448 W. Barry, Chicago, IL 60657 Please prepare a one minute contemporary monologue. You may also be asked for a second contrasting piece. Please bring your H/R. Also, Aloha, Say the Pretty Girls will now run Thursday - Sunday, May 30 - June 16, 2013 at the Heartland Studio in Rogers Park, bumping back a week later than stated in the original audition call. Thanks so much for your interest and sorry we couldn't schedule everyone for an audition slot at this time. M. William Panek Aloha, Say the Pretty Girls - director
