>Dear all, Deseret Experimental Opera Company is
>looking to authentically cast a blind female in
>their production in March! They would prefer
>someone local to Salt Lake City, Utah, but they
>are open to casting someone in a virtual
>position to prerecord their part, as well as to
>be present during the live performance virtually
>possibly. They write the following: Weâre
>seeking a performer to play the role of Elsie
>Pierath, a blind Danish woman who lived in Salt
>Lake City starting in 1903. The opera is fairly
>short, and as the name suggests - experimental.
>Our goal is to record the opera portion (due to
>COVID-19 safety concern) in early March prior to
>the performance on March 19th-20th. We also will
>have dancers embodying the characters, and would
>love to have help crafting the embodiment and
>portrayal of Elsie. There will be elements of
>experimental dance, spoken dialog, singing, etc.
>involved in the production. Perspective
>performers need not necessarily have dance
>experience as the choreographer is making the
>dance more pedestrian in nature, and we are
>flexible to the person not necessarily doing
>dance, depending on what we decide for the final
>performance. It would be ideal to have the music
>recorded sometime between the week of March 8th
>and March 15th. We have approximately 10 tracks
>of experimental opera recorded. The composer
>might be available for coaching or recording a
>rehearsal track for the performer. Logistics: We
>can promise $400 for performers. Interested
>parties should send audio and/or video
>recording, along with resume and headshot to
>Peter Larsen at: peterlarsen at deseretopera.org
