The Book of Tales - Learn, then Perform!

Climbing Vine is offering young Perth actors the opportunity to learn practical theatre performance in a hands-on, production based environment! The Book of Tales has its roots in one of our oldest traditions – storytelling. Travelling bands of performers would wander from place to place, town to town, performing cultural tales to earn their keep. Dancer, singers, musicians, jugglers, actors, all accompanied the master Bard, bringing legends of the past, news of the day and visions of the future to the people. This production will allow our young performers to learn classical storytelling in a traditional theatre environment. Incoporating movement, music and a lyrical script, The Book of Tales will bring a sense of magic to the stage. Cultural influences from all over the world will weave an intricate and beautiful tapestry, reminding us of our roots and the importance of storytelling. The production will debut at the Belmont College Amphitheatre in April of 2010. Young actors will take part in a course of workshops to develop the performance, followed by a two week intensive rehearsal period. The program begins in January of 2011 and is open to young actors aged 10 to 25. Book your audition NOW!
