Actor

Organisation/person name: 
bare hunt collective
Work type: 
Freelance
Work classification: 
Acting
Job description: 

Our piece focuses around a structured piece of storytelling. We are currently recording interviews from 8-88 years old. We will then edit and perform verbatim. Everyone has a story, we take responsibility for telling very personal stories. Our work will have a high level of innovation and experimentation: our method uses an integration of interview technique (rapport with subject), technology (we use iPod’s with the original interview recording in our ears) and precise acting method similar to a physical score. We were part of a collective which developed the “simultaneous speech” method during a year long investigation (Gathered in Confidence, 2008). We use iPod technology to fulfill our self-made criteria of honoring the subject by removing as much ‘acting’ interpretation of our material as possible. In this show we hope to experiment even further with the possibilities of this new technique- turning the cameras on each other.  

We are looking for mature actors who would like to be part of this production of documentary theatre with a potential for ongoing workshopping of material.
