Audition for Pop Music and Culture Tour of Italy- Theatrino
Musicians needed for Workshop Tour of Italy 2017!
Two musicians will tour the country, leading Italian secondary school students (aged between 11 and 18) through interactive workshops based on ‘Pop Music and Culture’.
A position on our Pop Music & Culture Tour involves touring around the country, leading Italian secondary school students (aged between 11 and 18) through interactive workshops based on ‘Pop Music and Culture’. You would be working independently with a class of about 25-30 students at a time. The workshop is already prepared (and successfully done on the road) and is primarily a power-point presentation with live guitar playing and singing throughout.
ALL APPLICANTS MUST BE CONFIDENT SINGERS WITH THE ABILITY TO PLAY GUITAR.
The songs you’d be performing are already chosen and go with the particular workshop requested. Songs are often updated during the tour to keep up with the Top 40 Chart. There are 3 different workshops offered depending on the students’ age. The workshops are 60 or 90 minutes long and you would usually do 3 or 4 a day in one or more schools, with around 25-30 students each time. You wouldn’t be teaching the students music or how to play an instrument. On that note, you don’t have to play at a professional level but enough to accompany yourself whilst leading songs.
As you’d be travelling around Italy with one other performer in a company car, drivers are required for this tour.
Interviews are by invitation and will be held in London, UK on Friday 4th November 2016. If unable to attend you will be invited to a Skype interview.
All actors must be available from Friday 6th January- Saturday 3rd June 2017 (minimum). Educo provides a salary of €250 per week for new artistes and €280 for returning artistes whilst on tour (paid monthly), accommodation, car and petrol and work insurance. A €50 contribution will be made towards arrival costs, and €50 towards leaving costs at the end of tour.
During rehearsals, you will receive a total wage of €300 plus shared room accommodation, breakfast and lunch.
For Pop Music and Culture artistes, rehearsals will begin on Saturday 7th or Sunday 8th January and will end on Saturday 21st January. You will either leave Sanremo on Saturday 21st or Sunday 22nd January depending on the location of your first destination. You will receive a total wage of €300 plus shared room accommodation, breakfast and lunch. Tour will begin on Monday 23rd January. Please note, the exact length of the rehearsal period is subject to change. This may be extended to Saturday 28th January, meaning that tour would start on Monday 30th. In this case you would receive €450 for the rehearsal period.
This is an invaluable opportunity for future careers and an experience never to be forgotten!
