Please submit photographs of yourself in your costume(s) for the role(s) desired. Photos should exhibit the design and quality of your appearance as your character as much as possible. You may also send videotape / DVD of your performances, but if possible, please include ONLY the section of the video you are in and describe which person you are! If you are a less experienced performer (i.e, less than one year OR 25 performances), video of your performance is highly recommended. You may send e-mail links to web pages with photos or add photo files as attachments to and send them, along with this completed application to uttconperformance@yahoo.com If you would like to submit photographs or applications by standard post mail, please send them to: Midnight Asterisk ATTN: UTT Con Performance Requests P.O. Box 914 Itasca, IL 60143 If you want your photographs returned, please include a self-addressed stamped envelope, or indicate if you want them returned to you during convention registration check in. If you send videotapes, you can either let us keep them or we can hold onto them for you and return them to you when you check in for the convention. Other Notes: -- When casting performers for roles, we do not discriminate based on gender (which means female Franks, male Columbias, etc. are fine as long as you can do a good job making yourself resemble your character). -- EDDIES and TRIXIES - depending on the number of applicants, we are intending to have multiple Eddies/Columbias for "Hot Patootie" and multiple Trixies for "Science Fiction Double Feature." Space IS limited. Eddies are responsible for finding and rehearsing with their own Columbias and both the Eddie and the Columbia in a pair must submit separate applications requesting "Hot Patootie" and mentioning the other person's name as his/her partner. Since our theater floor is slippery and uneven, we highly discourage the wearing of cowboy boots and tap shoes with taps attached. -- If you are applying for more than one character, please list the characters and scene preferences in order (e.g. 1st choice Frank floorshow, 2nd choice Magenta Time Warp, 3rd choice Frank dinner scene). Shock Treatment There will be a 1 hour rehearsal on Friday afternoon in the main convention room. Details will be included in all performers registration packs. Rocky Horror Performers will be required to check in at the theater no later than 11:30pm, or when the last bus from the hotel arrives, whichever is later. Anyone not checked in by midnight will have a fill in performer assigned to the role – unfortunately, too many performers at conventions have “flaked” and not showed for the performance, so we HAVE to do this. If you find out at any time before the performance (even during the application process) that you can not perform, please let us know so we can withdraw your name from consideration or our schedule. The Midnight Madness Rocky Horror Cast and Midnight Asterisk NFP claim no responsibility for any property lost/tossed/broken during your performance, including personal injury. We will, however, hold any convention attendants or performers responsible for any damages caused by them. You will be required to sign your application on site at registration check in time to note that you have agreed to our terms and restrictions.
