Soothfest
As most of you know, we've starting thinking about Soothfest. I'd like to enter three plays this year. So far we have two plays and directors figured out. Joe LeBlanc will and Dana Martin will be directing. The third play and director is still to be decided, so if you have any suggestions, let Kirsty know!
If you're planning to audition, I'd strongly recommend reading through the scripts and getting an idea of what parts you'd like to audition for. We'll also be using the scripts during auditions, so the more prepared you are, the more chance you'll get the part that you want!

Talent Agency Opening in North Bay
The following is an email that I recieved from the Arts Council. I don't know anything about this agency, I'm just posting this FYI:
Film Actor Jim Calarco and Producer Brigitte Kingsley are pleased to announce their new joint venture: “North Star Talent Agency” a division of King Bee Corporation.
Due to the sudden growth in local film and television production, it was inevitable that a local talent agency would be needed. Consequently, Northern Actors can now become a crucial part of this emerging industry. Having a Northern location where casting agents are able contact local talent will help not only the industry as a whole, but will also ensure that more Principal and Supporting roles will go to Northerners. The agency will organize training seminars and workshops to ensure that our actors have access to all the proper audition skills and materials necessary to compete with Toronto and L.A. based actors
North Star Talent Agency is expected to be up and running within the next 6 weeks and is currently accepting pictures and resumes from local talent. ACTRA members are especially in need. Interviews to join the agency will be held in a few weeks and chosen candidates will be contacted directly.
We look forward to receiving applications. If you would like to be a part of this new and growing agency, please submit your information to:
North Star Talent Agency 880 Jane Street, North Bay, Or email us at: northstaragency@ymail.com
Fighting Workshop
We're trying to get a stage fighting workshop going sometime in the near future. Hopefully we can get Dan (the guy who taught us sword fighting this summer), to come back. The workshop will be open to Stage 1 and STW members, but Stage 1 will get first priority. More details to come soon!
Film Camp
The rough editing has been finished for the Stage 1 movie. Judge is working hard on polishing the edits and the movie will be finished eventually, I swear!
