[Capdist-auditions] Wigs and Stylist Needed for I AM BARBIE at Bridge Street Theatre in Catskill

[Steven Patterson]

Catskill’s Bridge Street Theatre is searching for someone to do wigs and
styling for its East Coast premiere of Walton Beacham’s I AM BARBIE. This
is a paid position, with salary negotiable depending on experience and
whether the applicant has previous access to wig stock. The show has a
decidedly off-kilter sensibility and is a dream project for someone who
loves being totally outrageous with hair. It’s Barbie’s 60th Birthday
(she’s still looking absolutely FABULOUS, by the way), and she celebrates
by looking back on her innumerable careers, her on-again-off-again
relationship with Ken, and with other characters from her life including GI
Joe, She-Ra, Skipper, and her creators, Ruth Handler and Jack Ryan. A
hilarious and surprisingly touching look at what it’s like to be a Barbie
Girl in a not-so-Barbie world. Featured in the cast are Olivia Sargent
(Barbie), Max Kantor (Ken/GI Joe/Cowboy/Jack Ryan), Amanda Ferguson (Ruth
Handler/Annette Funicello), and Natalie Arneson (She-Ra/Skipper/Britney
Spears/Danica Patrick/Waitress), directed by Rob Maitner. More information
at bridgest.org/i-am-barbie/. Rehearsals begin on August 15, the production
opens on August 31 and runs for two weekends, eight performances, closing
on September 10. If interested or to discuss details, please contact John
Sowle as soon as possible at john at bridgest.org.
