World Premier Comedy Selling Love- Elite Theatre Company, Oxnard

World Premier comedy lands in Oxnard at the Elite Theatre Company in beautiful Channel Islands! 

Author Logan Rica Smith’s hilarious new work Selling Love, directed by award winning Director Andrew James, will leave the whole family laughing! 

In the BIG-TIME world of small-time soap manufacturing and sales, two employees seek self-cleansing and find a bubbling love that is matched only by their boss’s fervor for the product they sell. When a corporate hatchet man descends upon them, the entire office is put on edge and no one’s job is safe. This uproarious comedy shines with fun and laughter and will leave you with a greater appreciation for your own [comparatively] sane workplace!

Audition- Nottingham Festival, Simi Valley

Hear Ye! Hear Ye! Nottingham Festival Auditions Announced

   The Nottingham Festival, sponsored by the Simi Valley Cultural Association and Actors’ Repertory Theatre of Simi, announces auditions for their upcoming weekend renaissance faire, coming to the Ventura County area in Simi Valley on Nov. 16 and 17.

   Organizers are seeking talented, dynamic and outgoing stage acts, acoustic music and dance groups to perform on one of our four stages. They are also seeking strolling or stationary musicians and entertainers that will interact with the audience, in addition to helping create an “ambiance” and live soundtrack throughout the grounds of the festival. 

   If this sounds like you--if this sounds like fun--and if this is something any performers interested are ready to jump in and commit to, please join the organizers for open auditions on Sat. July 27 at 11 a.m. at the Simi Valley Town Center, 1555 Town Center Way, Simi Valley, CA 93065. For more information and to schedule an appointment please contact the Entertainment Director, Carlos Peñaranda, at carlos@nottinghamfestival.com.

   The Nottingham Festival is a traditional renaissance faire and market place focusing on education and entertainment of a specific historical time period, so it is asked that all performers and acts be willing to gear their entertainment toward the 16th century Elizabethan era of England. Organizers are aware that certain theatrical “liberties” will need to be taken with regard to period vs. non-period content, but keep modernisms and anachronisms to a clever minimum. This is an outdoor event so participants must be willing to work in the open air during the month of November. In an effort to remain “acoustic,” electricity will be provided in limited capacity, so bear in mind that performers will be unplugged and un-mic’d. Opportunity for pay is possible but not guaranteed.

Love is strong as death. - Song of Solomon 8:6

THE STORY

In the Spanish court of the 17th century, it is the birthday of the Infanta - arrogant, spoiled and heartless. As a special entertainment for her twelfth birthday, a “Fantastic” has been brought to the palace - an ugly, dwarfed boy - found innocently dancing and singing in nearby woods. The two children meet, one beautiful, heartless and unhappy; the other naive, poor, absurdly deformed but happy. Of the two, the princess is the more severely crippled because she lacks human compassion. The 'Fantastic' changes her life.
