A note from the Intimacy Coordinator:
You will have an opportunity to express your comfort level with staged intimacy in this semester’s productions. On your audition forms, the directors have provided details as to the specific intimacy needs for each production. Please give this some real thought, respond honestly, and let the team know if you have any questions.
Â
Certain intimacy moments are vital to the storytelling of the play. If you agree to the intimacy demands of the role you accept, you will be expected to meet those demands in production. If you are no longer willing or able to carry out those intimacy expectations during staging rehearsals, your role may need to be recast.
