A six performance Equinox festival held in March, the Festival of Dionysus is a party for myth and mortals. Six ten-minute scripts will be performed throughout the night amongst a lush, tree-laden, classical environment at a party hosted by Dionysus and the Olympic gods themselves.

Twelve ensemble members will engage all six scripts and play multiple roles throughout the night. The stories portray classic Greek theatre favorites pulled from Aeschylus, Euripides, Sophocles, and more; retold for the modern, ADD and television-soaked audience.

Performances are Fridays and Saturdays for three weeks in March 2012 at mythical arts center near Roosevelt and Wabash. Rehearsals will be Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and some Saturdays.

Please prepare one classic and one comedic monologue and be prepared for dry reading or games. Bring headshot and resume.

Feel free to forward this audition notice to anyone who might be interested, and check out the video of Oedipus from Festival of Dionysus 2010.

Who Has The Money

It isn’t you (it isn’t you)
it isn’t me (it isn’t me)
it isn’t mom (it isn’t mom)
it isn’t dad (it isn’t dad)
and it isn’t any teachers
or professors that you’ve had
who has the money?
(who has the money?)

It isn’t him
It isn’t her
It isn’t them
It isn’t us
and it isn’t anybody here
who had to take the bus
who has the money?

It isn’t firemen
and it’s not cops
it’s not grandma
it’s not pops
and it’s not the CTA guy
who calls out all the stops
who has the money?

It’s not students
It’s not drivers
It’s not waiters
or organizers
and it’s not the giant hot dog
that’s handing out the flyers
who has the money?

It’s not the plumber
or the cable guy
it’s not the pilot
in the sky
and it isn’t any soldier
that has to do or die
who has the money?

It’s not the busboy
It’s not the cook
or anybody here
just take a look
and it isn’t any author
who’s been working on a book
who has the money?

Why? Because our children are the 99%. Because 1 in 5 American families is food insecure. Because children are only 25% of the country’s population, but 40% of the population living in poverty. Because our schools are broke and our prisons are full. We want a better world for them. And we’re going to celebrate and sing while we do it. If you’ve never been to Occupy Chicago, if you’re worried about staying overnight, if you have children and haven’t brought them down to see what all the fuss is about… come KEEP YOUR CHILDREN OCCUPIED with us!
We need volunteers to help with any and all of the above! Holler at (theinternationalbedlamsociety@gmail.com) to help us out!
