I am going out on a limb here, but i am going to an Audition tonight...

[Lola]

has anyone seen the play Proof? A movie was just done based on the play with Gweneth Paltrow and Anthony Hopkins.

Anyways, i have not had a chance to read the play and the auditions are being read from the script....

has anyone read/saw it?

Can you give me some advice (besides be better prepared!) on the characters or play itself?

thanks.
PS... make all the "LUDE LUDE LUDE (if people can spell Poll wrong, i can spell lewd wrong!!!)" comments you want, at least try and help me find the script on the web or give me some links!!!

All in the production (director, producer, etc are women) and i would never do that ... not for community theatre anyways

Don't forget to wear your pantyhose

Seriously though, good luck. It'd be cool to know a thespian. I couldn't get on stage to save my life though the prospect intruiges me.

EDIT: And no, I haven't seen it, but wish I had so I could be more helpful.

Break a leg!

We all love
the richness of a good eye cream.



But it does leave a richness
or a greasiness under the eye.



Now let's take a look
at that nasty salsa stain.



This shirt is ruined. Right?
Wrong.



Watch the stain-fighting power of...



... designed with women in mind.

Wow...you're auditioning now? Details!

Can I make some lewd comments instead?

Good luck and have fun!

Is this what you are talking about?

 

[Rubycon]

You're going into this cold?

Good luck!

Here's a brief review. http://www.culturevulture.net/Theater2/Proof.htm There are many other reviews and quotes. Google is your friend. I might make a lewd comment but rarely a lude comment. Break a leg.

not really... i know what its about... i am just trying to find how to develop the character a bit. I am good at cold readings but i still want some "help"

 

[MikeyIs4Dcats]

apparently the movie diverted quite abit from the play. The play only has 4 characters.
