Audition Announcement
Third Eye Theatre presents
Tropical Heat
By Rich Orloff
Directed by Alacias Enger
Third Eye Theatre will be holding auditions for their summer production of Tropical Heat by Rich Orloff at 2:00pm on Sunday, June 10, 2012. Auditions will be held at The Kenton Masonic Lodge located at 8130 N. Denver Ave, on the 2nd floor. There is an elevator. This venue is accessible by bus lines 4 & 6, as well as the Max Yellow Line. Auditions will consist of cold readings from the script. A resume and head shot is preferred, but not mandatory. Please be prepared to list rehearsal conflicts at the time of the audition. Third Eye Theatre is a small non-profit theater company that works on a volunteer basis only, so all positions are unpaid. No appointment necessary for information call 503-970-8874.
Tropical Heat runs August 24-September 19, 2012 with shows on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays at the Kenton Masonic Lodge. Rehearsals will be primarily on the weekends and some week nights starting July 1st.
SYNOPSIS
When a masterful missionary clashes with a tantalizing temptress, he doesn't have a prayer!
Set in a rundown 1920's tropical hotel, TROPICAL HEAT pits a proselytizing preacher against a passionate party girl with a past. Other characters include a curmudgeonly hotel owner named Pops, a bum named Doc, and a tormented young painter who hasn't painted anything yet because he's still learning how to be tormented. The tension between the pious pastor and the vivacious vixen continues to build and build and BUILD, until passionate fury succumbs to furious passion.
TROPICAL HEAT is a play which gains from gender-bending casting, because beyond its madcap humor, it's ultimately a tale of acceptance. TROPICAL HEAT shows the power of love can make us want to spend our lives with someone we otherwise would spend ten minutes with.
CHARACTERS
MOXIE HART: A woman of easy virtue*
REVEREND JAMES ROBERTSON: A straight-laced missionary
POPS WOODLEY: A curmudgeonly hotel owner
DOC: A bum (and good at it)
*Given the style of TROPICAL HEAT, the author encourages gender-bending casting, including casting a man in drag as Moxie.

Tony and Tinas Wedding Looking for Actors (Portland Area)
Would any actor or actress be interested in helping to put on this show?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4GUWHr1Mr1s
One of the longest running shows in Off Broadway history, this delightful evening gives new meaning to the phrase "And now for something completely different!" Audience members are the guests at the nuptial celebration of Tony Nunzio and Valentina Vitale in all its tacky and hilarious glory. Following the church service is a reception where the audience joins the wedding party and their bickering families for a pasta dinner, champagne toasts, wedding cake and dancing to a five piece band.
"We've seen the future of theater and it is wild! Off Broadway's most innovative play satirizes a garish New York Italian wedding, and it's more fun when the audience joins in!"-Glamour Magazine
"You don't have to be Italian to understand the cliches lampooned."-N.Y. Daily News
"The oddest, goofiest unlikeliest hit in New York."-N.Y. Times

30 yr old female needed for instructional firearms video (Newberg)
This is a PG ad! A lot of these talent gigs kind of creep me out so I want to disclaimer this by saying that I'm looking for a normal girl. One that wears clothes.
I'm looking for someone around 30 years old who can be our model for an instructional firearms video that we'll be releasing soon. Think of a women's workout video, but for learning how to shoot. If this vague description sounds like something that you would buy, then you'd be a good fit for the video.
No previous acting or marksmanship experience is required. If you have neither, than someone who is active/outdoorsy will work great. In the video you'll be asked to wear tennis shoes, jeans, a long sleeve shirt, and maybe a hat, so please send a picture of what you will wear that matches that description. Please also shoot a short video of yourself talking into your camera phone or computer cam, explaining why we should select you, so that we can see what you look like talking on camera.
Filming will take place on the 16th or 17th.

Actress wanted for 1 weekend night (PDX - St Johns)
I have a history of quick turn-around when it comes to scripting, filming and editing; so, if you'd like to add to your professional reel without much delay, please do not hesitate to answer the call for an ACTRESS needed this weekend. It won't be more than 3 hours indoors of either Saturday or Sunday night. Your call, actually. My professional crew is free both nights. If interested, reply with acting history in a nutshell (link to vids a bonus), and I'll send you a link to my video channel. I've been making films for under two years but have been writing for over a decade; so, you can expect worthwhile character development.
I can't pay at this juncture, but there will be food, drinks, compliments and future work if gelling occurs. Thank you.
