The Amoralists Present:
“Zeitgeist”
A Monthly scene night of volatility, sexuality, and uncontrolled decadence.
In walks Zeitgeist: a handsome Creature, not conceRned with commercial success, Uncompromising in its deSire to unsettle the Human soul. Personification aside, Zeitgeist, is a monthlY scene night beginning this spring. Organized by, The Amoralists, Zeitgeist, seeks not only to allow artists to get mUch needed live performance experience but also seeks to develop an aRtistic community in a town and business where the Artist often feels isolated and at the meRcy of powers beyond their conTrol.
The model is simple:
Scenes can be no longer than ten minutes in length.
Each scene must have a director. Having trouble finding one? Let us know.
Published and Unpublished works are welcome.
The actor(s) and director are required to meet with an auditor at a set date before the show, to make sure the work is on track. This assures a quality of work that will keep Zeitgeist professional, as well as vibrant.
These are the only rules, beyond them, bring us your violent, sexual, unstable tendencies and unleash them on the world.
And remember: this is a not only a place to perform, but also a place to workshop and experiment, we encourage pieces aimed at performance level production as well as those aimed at the development of new work.
Zeitgeist will run the second Monday of every month at The Gene Frankel Theatre. Participation for those involved in the scene is free, however, space is limited, so get in touch! For scene ideas, questions, and comments please email, Matt Fraley, at mattfral@yahoo.com.
