davis_squareAs often is wont to happen, I'm helping out with a show and we're looking for help. Might this be you?
WANTED: 2-4 musicians to volunteer for the spring play Knight of the Burning Pestle being performed by Theatre@First April 23–May 2.
This Elizabethan comedy will be done in Renaissance style, with most of the music taken directly from the text of the play. The musicians will comprise the house band, and will take turns playing along to the play's many simple songs. For the big finale song, everyone will play and all the actors will sing.
Almost any acoustic instruments can be used, including guitar, fiddle, flute, oboe, lute, recorder, etc. For more information, e-mail the director Mary Parker at maryphilippa (and then the AT sign) gmail (and then that DOT thing) com. Individuals as well as groups welcome to reach out (we will happily pair folks up).
We'd like to hear responses by the first week in February.
