Once you receive a casting notice

Once you receive a casting notice and you have chosen the role that you wish to suggest yourself for, make sure you have a professional head shot of no larger than 25k and a cv in doc format of no larger than 25k to email directly to the prescribed casting director, producer or director of any industry project.  These industry people will provide BAN with their full name, email and contact number and it will be your responsibility to ensure that you forward the appropriate material to them directly and not BAN.

By joining BAN,

By joining BAN, you automatically begin receiving frequent casting notices for mainly unpaid projects as well as some deferred payment and actual paid work opportunities.  We can never guarantee any BAN member paid work but what we can advise, is that upon reception of any casting notice, you forward it onto another artist you think may be suitable for a particular role and invite that artist to join BAN too.

Origin Across Brisbane - Alice 21 : Brisbane Festival 2008

 

alice 21 is a FREE outdoor production about an urban teenage girl’s search for her individual identity in the 21st century.
This world premiere commissioned by Brisbane Festival 2008 and written and directed by Brisbane artists Stephen Rowan and Linda Hassall is contemporary music-theatre experience incorporating multimedia, dance, great music and punchy dialogue. 

Taking the premise from Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland alice 21 explores youth culture through Alice’s eyes. Finding a niche culture affects all aspects of Alice’s life – the clothes she wears, the peer group she hangs with, the friends she rejects, what she should be rebelling against and the music she listens to!
Join us as we follow Alice on her tragic/comic journey through this curious age!
