Democracy Burlesque
2014-2015 Season Auditions

Pay: No Pay

Description:

Democracy Burlesque, Chicago's only theatre company dedicated to political sketch comedy, is holding auditions for its 2014-2015 season. We are seeking multi-talented performers from all backgrounds who are ready to get to work and collaborate as a member of our ensemble. This season, we will be producing three world premiere shows, and actors may be cast in more than one production if their schedule allows. Rehearsals and performances will take place at Mary's Attic, 5400 North Clark Street. Rehearsals will be Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays in March, June, and September. All Performances will be on Tuesday evenings in April, July, and October. Democracy Burlesque seeks to create scripted sketch comedy that is relevant to the times we live in, and hence puts an emphasis on political satire. In addition we strive to keep a strong connection to our community and help to raise funds for local charities and community groups. Let's make some art with a heart - but remember: Only the Politics are Naked.

Material To Prepare:

A one minute comedic monologue, optional one-minute a capella song, and be prepared for a cold read and a short interview with fellow auditionees and current Democracy Burlesque ensemble members.
