Chatterbox: Pudding's Place
DREAMCASTINGS!!!
DREAMCASTINGS!!!
OK, so this is where we pick a play and people 'audition' for it, and then we all vote on who gets what part and then... well, that's it! So, yeah. I wish we could do this in real life and then put on a play, but that's probably impossible.
The play is..... ANNIE THE MUSICAL!!!
Here's the audition slip:
NAME:
AGE:
LOOKS: (Height, hair color, ETC.)
WANTED ROLES: (Most wanted first, second-most wanted second, and so on.)
FORMER EXPERIENCE:
Once everyone filled out a form, we all vote on who should play who, and whoever has the most votes for a part gets that part!! I will write down all the roles after everyone's voted. If someone gets a lead role in this dreamcastings, they can't get a lead role in the next one.
Hope this isn't too confusing!!

So we have 26 parts and 10 people signed up, so we need more people to sign up!! We can still vote, but we should try to get more people to sign up. When we do the play, it should be a thread on Pudding's place, and we should call it "Annie." Everyone basically says their lines in order, and if we get any stage crew to come they could be like "*Moves Miss Hanigan's table away*" as they are moving the set. If you don't have the script, you probably can find it online somewhere. I don't think we should set a time because it would be too hard to get everyone there. I think we should just say our lines and wait for the next person to say theirs.

I have the Annie Jr. version of the script. That is probably not the same version you have. Where should I look for the right version? Just search Annie script?
(November 11, 2015 - 9:39 pm)
Actually, I have the Jr version script too... maybe we could ask everyone else if they would be willing to do the Jr version?

I think we can choose the background parts kind of randomly, after the main cast is decided. Also, we need at least one boy. Unless one of you would be okay with playing Warbucks. Because I don't want to offend anyone by voting to cast them as a forty-something-year-old man. But if that's okay with you, I'll vote anyone who isn't in scenes with Warbucks as Warbucks. (Including the orphans, since it's not like Pepper or Duffy not being there will mess up the finale).
