AUDITIONS: JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR

AUDITIONS: JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR
JANUARY 7TH & JANUARY 8TH

Tacoma Little Theatre is holding auditions for Andrew Lloyd Webber’s JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR, directed by Lexi Barnett with musical direction by Leischen Moore.

Auditions will be held Sunday, January 7th and Monday, January 8th at Tacoma Little Theatre. Audition appointments will be set between the times of 6:00pm-9:00pm on Sunday and 7:00pm-10:00pm on Monday. Callbacks will be held on Tuesday, January 9th.

It seems especially fitting that the first rock opera, created as a concept album at the end of the turbulent ’60s, should have at its center a social and political rebel. Jesus’ meteor-like rise in renown provides, as the title suggests, a parallel to contemporary celebrity worship. As his radical teachings are evermore embraced, Judas increasingly questions the enlightened motives of this new prophet, resulting in betrayal. Christ’s final days are dramatized with emotional intensity, thought-provoking edge, and explosive theatricality. Propelled by a stirring score, by turns driving and majestic, satirical and tender, Jesus Christ Superstar illuminates the transcendent power of the human spirit with a passion that goes straight to the heart.

Please prepare an up-tempo song of 32 bars in the style of the piece to showcase your acting and vocal abilities.  This musical audition will be used to evaluate both your voice and acting abilities.  All roles are available and all ethnicities are welcome to audition.  For more information see www.tacomalittletheatre.com.

To reserve an audition time, email tlt@tacomalittletheatre.com, or call our Box Office at (253) 272-2281. Please provide: your name, phone number, email address, preferred audition time, and playable age.  Bring a headshot and resume to your audition.

Once cast, JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR will run from Friday, March 9, 2018 to Sunday, April 1, 2018.

Washington Northwest Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction Region Youth Department  Shared In An Amazing Experience at the Regional Youth Rally in Sacremento CA

The Regional Youth Rally in Sacremento was an amazing experience. This was my first time traveling outside of Washington state to attend a church event in our denomination, and I enjoyed every moment of it. I didn’t want to see the rally end, because we had a great time in each church service, as well as two remarkable speakers. I enjoyed meeting new people. It was also amazing to see the youth involved and have apart in each service. This rally, has really opened my eyes and I am not planning to attend more events in our church, which is outside of our states.

  Good Times, Building Memories That Shape The Future .

 

Stay RESTED in The Lord

 

 

 

 

Next year, Washington will be hosting the rally and I can’t wait to start planning.

Press: (How to Get Through)

by Leave a Comment

21316182_1673231466034836_9170783838014527911_o
The postmodern world is complex. It can be hard to get a reprieve from the tasks and trials of everyday life. And when tragedy strikes, our grief can overwhelm us. Yet the troubles that humans go through are nothing new. Through the experiences of others, we can learn new coping skills and even find joy despite our suffering.

Rev. Dr. George E. Noble, CRE, has seen
members of his congregation face hurdles big and small—and he’s had his own obstacles to deal with. So he decided to share what he’s learned. Based on his popular sermon of the same name, Press will introduce you to time-tested techniques for experiencing peace in the storm. You will learn to identify the sources of your stress, ask yourself if the problem is the situation or your response to it, and refuse to take on problems that belong to someone else. Most importantly, you will learn that Pressure Released Energizes Supernatural Strength!

As you read and put into practice this inspirational advice, you will encounter stories of others who have dealt with similar situations and found hope, peace, and joy despite their circumstances. A change is available to everyone who pursues it!

Charleena Lyles Solidarity & Benefit Concert

43C331CF00000578-4841768-image-m-99_1504212198455
Seattle police officers shot Charleena Lyles while pregnant seven times and one of the bullets struck her unborn baby boy, autopsy reveals. Attorneys representing the father of Charleena Lyles released an autopsy report on her death. The 30-year-old woman was nearly four months pregnant on June 18 when she was shot dead by two police officers at her apartment in Seattle

The autopsy shows that she was shot seven times by the cops – including twice in the back . One of the bullets perforated her uterus, killing the male fetus inside  Toxicology results showed that Lyles had no drugs or alcohol in her system.43C3591800000578-4841768-image-m-102_1504213690394

The two officers said they shot Lyles when she lunged at them with knives Her father’s attorneys released the report to dispel assumptions that ‘she was a poor, single black woman with multiple children who must have been on drugs’

The two officers who shot Lyles, Jason Anderson and Steven McNew, are on paid administrative leave pending the results of an internal investigation. In the wake of Lyles’ death, much attention has been paid to the fact that one of the officers didn’t have a taser on him, as is required.

The Seattle Police Department is still investigating the deadly shooting, and both officers remain on paid administrative leave in the meantime. Earlier this month, Lyles’ family filed a claim against the city – the first step in filing a lawsuit. Ninety days after the claim is filed, the family will be able to formally sue.

The family’s claim says the two officers ‘lost their composure’ when Lyles came at them with knives, and that they failed to order her to drop her weapons as a warning before shooting. They also say the two cops knew about Lyles’ mental illness and should have had a plan for dealing with her, as is required by the 1999 Americans with Disabilities Act.
