Needing FReeper Help

I'd like some references from any fellow FReepers who may be able to help, especially those on the Left Coast.

I sent out a parody Shakespeare script to some folks in the Bay Area and they need to find actors who can do it. (They are interested in doing it, but they thought we had a troupe and we don't.)

Does anyone here know anyone who might be able to do this?

Thanks in advance for all the help you can give.

Chris Tucker’s available.

Nope, sorry, I don’t know any acting troupes, but it sounds interesting.

Why don't you search the Internet for small coffee houses in Left Coast cities (in case the coffee house has a website) get their phone numbers, and call around.

Cities like SF, Seattle, and Portland,OR, have lots of acting groups and actors who might like to give your script a try.

Calling on the phone might give you some "on the ground" info about the local scene. Good luck.

Um...I was Annie Oakley in a school play once.

I don’t have any direct knowledge but I know that Ashland Oregon hosts an annual Shakespeare festival. If I remember correctly there were continuous performances of all sorts on multiple stages. You might be able to score some contacts here: http://www.orshakes.org/

God be with you in your efforts at highlighting patriotic priorities.

Thx.

I actually have some interest in the thing from a Renaissance Festival, but they need actors to do it, so I’m trying to help make a connection. Not easy from the East Coast.

Know anybody? :’)

Know anybody? :’)

Well, sort of.

My Nephew is a producer... but he tends to the really outlandish. For example he plays Satan in San Francisco's annual Satan Show, and does other high art works such as Attack of the Zombie Girls".

He primarily designs and builds Renaissance Fair structures and builds things that get burned up... such as the "Clock Tower" at the 2005 "Burning Man" celebration.

I don't think he is too into Shakespeare...

PS... his politics are not exactly ... well... it is San Francisco... and... well.. er... uh...

Shucks! I married into the family...
