Actress Needed
We are holding open auditions for a role in a film "Love" which is about the love in all forms of relationships. The role will require around 10 days of filming. Preferably actresses 18 to 24. This is an extremely low budget film so there will be no pay, but the director has a film in international film festivals and fully expects this one to reach international film festivals as well. This will be a great opportunity for exposure. We require an audition for the role so please contact me through email if you are interested in auditioning. Those who audition will be considered for other roles in the film as well.
The Director of this film is very young yet he does have one film at an international film festival as stated above. The script has been edited by many people and they all have said that this could be the directors best film if executed.

Greetings from Valley Repertory Theatre!
Having recently announced our 2012-2013 season, we are now on the look out for talented individuals to work as designers and stage managers in our upcoming productions! Interested? If so, please review the show details at the bottom of the page and the required information below, then direct an e-mail to our Production Manager, Tara Beanblossom (tara@valleyrep.org) with the following information:
1. Which shows you are interested in and WHY?
2. What areas you are interested in (SM, props design, costume design, etc…) and are you willing to fill more than one position in any given show?
3. What scheduling conflicts might you already know of that would effect which show you would be placed in?
Also, please indicate your first, second and third choice of shows if you are going to be able to participate in only a limited number of productions. We will place you based on your preference, each shows needs and (for some) quality of previous work.
In an attempt to avoid rehearsal and scheduling conflicts down the road, we are assigning designers and SMs now for the entire season so that you will know your production schedule and can plan your year accordingly. Once design teams are finalized we will contact you & distribute production calendars so that you can begin design preparations and work out scheduling issues.
Lastly, please include your updated contact information in your e-mail to Tara. We want to make sure that we have the most
current phone numbers & e-mail addresses for everyone throughout the summer months.
Limited stipend funds are available and will be discussed upon hire. Please respond to Tara by Friday 06/08.
Thank you, and we look forward to working together towards a successful season!

2012-2013
SEASON ANNOUNCEMENT
As we lay to bed each night, our minds unravel layers of our subconscious in dreams. Who am I? Who could I be? What am I made of? What purpose do I have? Then we wake to a world with endless possibilities. Can I turn these dreams into a reality? Will my fears keep me from achieving my heart’s greatest desires?
In our second season, we at Valley Repertory Theatre invite you to explore the universal experience of dreams and how they define us as individuals and as a community. Our 2012-2013 season of live theatrical performances features four journeys of men and women trying to decipher the timeless question of identity through their dreams and nightmares. From those striving for the elusive American Dream, to those whose aspirations devolve into nightmare, come with us as we discover the dreams we’re made of.
The Plays:
A Break in the Clouds: Stories of Newberg
An original play
Directed by Caleb Thurston
September 20-23, 27-30; October 4-7, 2012
Based on true stories told by diverse residents as well as research of local historical figures, this original play brings to life the lives of Newberg’s dreamers, past and present. On what visions was this community built? How does the picture of contemporary Newberg compare to the hopes our founders had for us? The stories of our neighbors promise to surprise and inspire us.
Presented with the collaboration of the Yamhill County Cultural Coalition.
It’s A Wonderful Life
Adapted for the stage by James W. Rodgers
Based on the film by Frank Capra
Directed by Stephen Pick
December 6-9, 13-16, 20-23, 2012
George Bailey’s dreams could take him far away from the small town of Bedford Falls, but his sense of duty has a way of keeping him there. As his ambitions float out of reach, George is finally left one Christmas Eve staring at what he views as a failed life. It will take divine intervention to give George the chance to see what the world would be like if he had never been born. Capra’s unforgettably classic characters are all present in the stage adaptation of this heart-warming, family-friendly tale.
Julius Caesar
By William Shakespeare
Directed by Caleb Thurston
February 28-March 3, March 7-10, 14-17, 2013
Is Caesar a charismatic liberator or an opportunistic dictator? Brutus finds himself trapped between duty to country and loyalty to friend as a political plot devolves into murder. Shakespeare’s tragedy is given a contemporary setting, exploring the cost of ambition and duty that rings true both in the ancient Roman Senate and in the halls of modern Washington D.C.
My Name is Asher Lev
By Aaron Posner
Adapted from the novel by Chaim Potok
Directed by Stephen Pick
May 23-26, May 30-June 2, June 6-9, 2013
Asher Lev could be the next Picasso. But as the son of devout Hassidic Jewish parents who struggle to understand art as God’s work, Asher Lev is torn apart. Yes, he knows he is supposed to honor his parents, but must he not also be true to himself? To his dreams? Asher Lev shares these struggles with us as we glimpse the pieces of his painful past which led to his most famous work and the decision that changed his life forever.
