Auditions for Final FASSity MMX (FASS 2010)

posted 2009/12/28 by Lukas Matthews

Yes, it's that time of year again when the FASS machine starts shifting into higher gears! As such, what better way to help us do so than to come on out to auditions?

The essential details:

Date: Wed-Fri, January 6th - 8th, 2010
Time: 6 - 9 pm each night
Place: beginning in HH 119

You only need to come out for one of these nights, but do please allow for at least an hour to audition. (You don't need to be there for the whole three hours, though!)

What about techies and musicians?

Techies and musicians, too! We want you to come out, express your interest in the show, and meet Jordis, our Tech Director, and Chuck, our Music Director.

If you're unable to make any of the audition nights, but still would love to participate, please contact Trisha, our Stage Manager, to make arrangements to be involved.

If you are auditioning for a part in the play then you will be taken through acting, singing and dancing auditions. Please be sure to wear comfortable clothing that you can move around in. Everybody will go through all three parts of the auditions, but you can note on your auditions forms if you do not want to sing and/or dance in the show.

Note that the show dates for this year's show are:

Thursday, February 4th, 2009 at 8:00pm
Friday, February 5th, 2009 at 7:00pm and 10:00pm
Saturday, February 6th, 2009 at 8:00pm

For more details, please take a look at the Auditions page of the FASS Handbook, and if you have any questions, please feel free to email the co-Producers.

Hope to see you there!

As Fall is certainly now upon us, it is clearly time for a Fall Organizational Gathering!
The essential details:

Date: Thursday, October 8th
Time: 7 - 9 pm
Place: SLC Great Hall

What is a FOG, you ask? Well, in short, it's a time of information, of fun, of food, and of FASS. Come and ask questions about FASS and the 2010 show and how you can be involved, whether that's through tech, acting, production, writing, creative staff, and, of course, laughing along with us from the audience! For those of you who've 'FASSed' before, come hang around with some FASSies whom you might not have seen since February! Come join us for a time of food (of the free variety!), of fun, FASSies, frivolity, and more!

Looking forward to seeing you there!
