Actors Wanted

This just popped through on the Arts Council mailing list:

"el mono theatre's next production, Hamlet, is being performed at Camden People's Theatre in September and we're looking for help in the production stages of the project.

"We require a group of actors to help our one member of cast in devising and rehearsing the show. You would not be needed every day but any day you can spare would be very welcome. There is no fee for the work just a chance to work with the company and be creative. We are rehearsing from 21st August-7th September at Friargate Theatre, York. Rehearsals are from 10-5 Monday -Friday.

"If you're interested or know of someone who might be email me on el.mono@virgin.net with your cv and availability."

Sounds fascinating.

Potential forty-two

I'd better start saving:

"Time-travelling David Tennant - the best of all the Dr Whos - is in negotiations to play Hamlet for the Royal Shakespeare Company. To be, or not to be the Danish prince, that is the question for Mr Tennant, who starts shooting his third series as the Time Lord in Cardiff on Monday.

"The plan being developed by RSC artistic chief Michael Boyd is for Mr Tennant to play Hamlet in a production he wants to direct next summer. The exact timing will depend on whether the actor will do a fourth batch of episodes as the Converse All Stars-sporting Doctor. "

"To be or not to be...." "Ooh that's good." [via]
