A stage career beckons
Toshiki Okada, founder of the Chelfitsch Theatre Company and author-director of the critically acclaimed “Super Premium Soft Double Vanilla Rich”, will be looking for stars in Bangkok next month.
Okada, in partnership with the Japan Foundation Asia Centre, will hold auditions for actors as well as an assistant director and an assistant producer for a new work he’ll bring to the stage in 2018.
After that there’s likely to be a tour of Southeast Asia, Japan, Australia and Europe. So the three to six performers sought in Bangkok will have to make long-term commitments, including for rehearsals both in Japan and Thailand.
The preferred assistant director must be able to understand Okada’s directing process and help record daily rehearsal sessions in Thai, Japanese or English, as well as scheduling them.
One or two assistant producers are also needed to handle various duties, including liaison, publicity, accounting and coordination of rehearsals, performances and tours.
Applicants should email a CV in English or Japanese, a face photo and a written statement of aims and ambitions to [email protected] by April 10.
