If interested, please send a copy of your headshot and resume to Philadelphiaoperacollective@gmail.com, as well as a preferable time which you would like to audition.
For the auditions make sure that you bring an English aria, another of your choice and a hard copy of your resume and headshot. Reese Revak, our Maestro, will accompany you in the audition and there is no audition fee.
Roles to be cast:
Secret Police Agent, villian - bass
Mr. Kofner - bass-baritone
Assan - bartione
If hired to sing for us, all rehearsals and requirements for you will be specifically outlined in your contract. However, we will have staging rehearsals largely at the end of August (during the last two weeks) and the first week of September and the production will take place during the Philadelphia Fringe Festival in September.
The mission statement of the company is as follows:
The Philadelphia Opera Collective is a group consisting of young professionals and emerging artists in the operatic field. We are dedicated to providing opportunitiesfor young artists as well as creating a forum where the creative development ofthe operatic medium is a collective effort among its artists. We hope to use our productions to not only increase the amount of chamber opera in Philadelphia but to craft an environment where opera becomes accessible to those not familiar with the artform.
There is no pay for this venture, only the opportunity to work with one of Philadelphia's up and coming directors, Brenna Geffers, (who is known for her work with both the Exile Theatre Company and EgoPo Theatre Company) as well as the excellent exposure that the Fringe Festival provides.
