Dramatists Play Service is pleased to announce the publication of:
McREELE by Stephen Belber 3M, 2W “…Stephen Belber has kept a conscientious ear and an observant eye on the manipulative power of our easily misguided/hoodwinked mainstream media and its ability to willfully deceive itself. MCREELE courageously…illustrates this unfortunate state of affairs in the affairs of state.” —CurtainUp. “Stephen Belber’s new play, MCREELE, has a lot on its mind: truth and honesty in public and private life, media manipulation, faith in the judicial system, the packaging of a political persona, redemption from past disgrace.” —Variety. “…synthesizes all the best elements of political and racial drama and possesses the kind of clarity and moment-to-moment logic actors prize.” —nytheatre.com.
PRIVILEGE by Paul Weitz1M, 2W, 2 boys “…delicately funny… [a] clear-eyed comedy about the collateral damage sustained by the family of a disgraced businessman…humanizes a world normally glimpsed only in tabloid flashes…[Weitz’s] bottomless knowledge of this territory emerges in small details that illuminate both the surface absurdity and the underlying poignancy…Weitz understands how the culture of wealth can weaken the bonds between parents and children.” —NY Times. “…the play succeeds wonderfully…a beautiful portrait of brothers helping each other cope with the adult world.” —NY Post. “Weitz has a gift for capturing the parlance of youth…” —Variety.

Shopping for a Headshot

Acting Career FAQ - Headshot Info At The Supermarket


Do you read The National Inquirer? People? The Star?


Well, even if you don't read them, you can't help
but notice them – as you are checking out at the
supermarket. Let's face it, the tabloids are a part
of our everyday experience.


Did you realize that there's a big lesson to be
learned from them?


If you are pursuing a career as an actor, I urge you
to give the tabloids a closer look and discover
something important about getting your headshots
taken.


Here's the way it works: The tabloids offer good
money to photographers who can come up with a
photo of a star looking like something the cat
dragged in. Why? Because they know that their
readers are curious. Everyone wants to know what
the stars REALLY look like. (They can't all be
beautiful, can they?)


Of course, the stars are aware that the paparazzi
are out there. The paparazzi's goal is to get a
money shot: An unflattering photograph of Jennifer,
Angelina or Ben. The stars' goal is to look like
the stars they are, in every picture.


So that's the game. The photogs snap and the stars
pose. Watch any red carpet ceremony and you'll see
the game being played out. Hundreds of people with
cameras - scores of stars doing their best to look
like, well, stars.


So what's the lesson? It's just this - no matter
who the photographer is, it's the actor's job to
make sure that the photos turn out well - for the
actor.


This is especially true when you are paying the
photographer to take your pictures. The idea that
a certain photographer is going to produce a great
headshot FOR YOU, without your involvement ... is
just not reality.


No matter who the photographer is, (and remember
there are hundreds... of varying skills, at every
red carpet event) it's your responsibility to
look good in any photograph of you.


Is this a matter of "looks?" No, it's a matter of
knowing the skills needed when you are in front of
the camera. Stars get to be stars because they
know this ... and they work at these skills.


Most actors discover the hard way that spending
100's of dollars to get headshots doesn't guarantee
success. For some it takes years of frustration and
disappointment (and sometimes thousands of dollars)
... before they finally get a headshot that gets
them called in.


Why? Because most actors learn these skills through
a process called "figuring it out on my own." This
is a costly approach ... guaranteed to cause career
problems for actors ... until they get a headshot
that works ... a headshot that gets them called in.


And,let's face it, nothing can happen until you get
IN THE DOOR.


Getting in the door is all about your headshot. Not
getting called in? It's probably not you - it's
probably your headshot.


I urge all actors to watch the red carpet - and see
what the actors who've succeeded are doing.


And don't forget to check out the tabloids while
you're in line with your groceries - and see what
happens when stars are not "in the game" and doing
their part.

Dinner Event

Hi Everyone,
I am producing another industry dinner on Monday, May 1st from 7 pm to 10:30 pm. In New York City.
How did these dinners get started?
Some years ago, an actor told me that he paid $300 to go to an event and meet 10 different casting directors and agents and do monologues in one night. I got a little bothered that it was so expensive to do, because that kind of money is not always affordable to an actor.
It has been a few years, but with the launch of my book "The underground Actors Guide to Success- The Networking Bible for Actors", I've decide to put in the time to make another great dinner event happen.
I think it would benefit everyone to read my book before they attend, to have an understanding of the best way to connect with the industry guests, and how to stay in touch. Besides all of the other amazing info that it will teach you.
----------------------------------------------------------------
I'll have 10 to 15 agents, managers, producers, directors, casting directors there.
It's a casual dinner in a nice location. It's not about doing a monologue, its about connecting with these people so they want to see you again.
Everyone will have tags, so you will know who they are when you see them.
In the past, I've had agents tell me that this is the best event they have done, because they met so many people and didn't feel the pressure of a 3 minute monologue and then a 2 minute critique and on to the Next person- especially if they wanted to talk a little more.
My view is that making a connection or a friend is far better than reading for someone once., and then never hearing from them again.
I am confirming the location now.
..And the price is about the same as doing a workshop with a casting director or agent, but there no membership fee like at a lot of the workshop companies.
And by the way. If you think having an agent or a manager is the most important thing- there is NO most important thing. One gets you another. If you are cast by a producer or director in a picture, and you are doing good work, and you are getting paid, you will easily get an agent or manager.
This can happen because you know the casting director, too. Of course, an agent or manager can submit you, and if there relationship to casting or the director is strong enough, then that will work for you as well, as if you know the director personally. There are a lot of favors exchanged in this business based on favors and relationships.
Below is a list of guests so far.
If an industry guest has a last minute project that comes up and cant make it, we'll make sure to have enough great people to make it more than worth while. PS. Many of these producers and directors are actively doing film and TV right now.
1. Bill kalatsky- That's me. I just produced a reality show and am about to do a feature film that I wrote. Just finalizing details. I cast, as many of you know for pharmaceutical industrials and print, and submit talent for jobs when appropriate.
2.Sid Gold of Goldstar talent management- I work with Sid Regularly. (you may know his son Elon, who is the lead male in the TV show Stacked, with Pam Anderson
3.Joanna Scholl- Head of Marketing for HBO- Knows Everyone..really, everyone.
4.Russell Terlecki- President of WidEyecreative. Produces film, TV, commercials and music videos- and a very cool guy. Works with Spike TV and just did the Feature "The Attic" which is getting a huge stir. Russ is working on a new film or music video every time we talk.
5.Adam Raia- Director- currently has 1 film in Blockbuster, a show going to network TV, and is always looking for new faces. He and I are doing a new music show, and a feature film.
6.Michael Michel- Was with Universal Music for 10 years. He is now producing music videos and doing sound design for film.
7. Edmar Flores- Film Producer & 1st AD. He just sold a film to Sony Classics, and if he is not producing, he is Assistant directing, so knows about A LOT of the upcoming projects in NYC.
8.Paladino Casting- Casts for film, TV, commercial, videos and industrial.
9. Despina Crassa- The Gersh Agency. Despina is in Literary, however she loves referring talent to the agents that are looking for actors.
And you'll be getting a very nice buffet dinner - bread, salad, pasta, chicken, - yes, you have to buy your own drinks.
The dinner alone would cost you $25- 30 in NYC.
The Price for this event is $55 if you pay by April 5th (Yes, it is a deductible business expense :) )
$65 after the date of April 5th
$75 after the date of April 15th.
And $85 at the door- if there is space available. Which I don't expect.
Every time I've done this industry dinner, we've sold out.
If you are referring anyone to join us, let me know and you can save $5 per person that you refer.
Get back to me as soon as possible.
There will be some raffles too:
1 person will win a free headshot session.
1 person will win a free spa treatment.
1 person may win a Walk on role for a feature film. This may include a speaking role.
To register via credit card, go to:
http://www.actorsny.com/join.html
To Pay by Check, please make payable to ActorsNY and send to:
ActorsNY LLC
511 6th ave #342
NY NY 10011
For cash payment, send me an email to set up a time we can meet in my office.
I did send this email out to the first third of the ActorsNY list yesterday and have over 100 responses already, so if you are interested, don't procrastinate.
We've always booked up completely, and I want to maintain as close to possible of a 10 to 1 actor to industry ratio for the 3.5 hour event.
I hope this gives all of you that have been asking a good boost.
PS. There's no BS here. These are all people with active lives and a lot of projects happening.

Send this to a friend so they can subscribe to our list, too.
Go To ActorsNY.com and enter you name in the subscribe box. And then add BKproduction@actorsNY.com to your address book so the emails don't go to your bulk or spam folder.
Stay focused.

Dramatists Play Service is pleased to announce the publication of:
BAPTIZED TO THE BONE by Dave Johnson“2004 Outstanding New Play!” —Dallas/Fort Worth Theatre Critics Forum. “Taking risks…mixing a couple of potent ingredients, religion and sex.” —Dallas Morning News.
LIFE IS SHORT by Craig PospisilThis hilarious collection of short plays is a comical look at relationships from childhood to old age. Some are charming and light, others dark and absurdist, but all eight gleefully portray people at their worst. And sometimes their best. These short plays can be performed separately or as a single evening of theater. “Pospisil knows how to write funny dialogue.” —Times-Union (Rochester). “Craig Pospisil mines the everyday for universal truths.” —Oakland Press.
MEN'S SINGLES (Revised Edition) by D.B. Gilles"Ladies and gentlemen, walk right up and meet a HIT…a stirring explosion of humor with laughs a mile a minute. A probing, insightful look at three men…Gilles' play is bound to be discussed and seen over and over." —Drama-Logue. "…an excellent script…Gilles ably and entertainingly tells the progress of each of these men's lives." —Daily Variety.
MODERN ORTHODOX by Daniel Goldfarb“Daniel Goldfarb has written an adorable romantic comedy—with honest to G-d belly laughs—about love and sex and faith and friendship.” —Variety. “The place of conservatism in the modern world can be a polarizing topic. In MODERN ORTHODOX, Daniel Goldfarb’s entertaining new play, it also happens to be a potent source of comedy…Goldfarb’s writing hints at classic comedy films of the 1940s or 1950s, with some exchanges seeming as though they could have been written for Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn…” —A.P.
NICKEL AND DIMED by Joan Holden, based on the bestseller Nickel and Dimed, on (Not) Getting by in America by Barbara Ehrenreich “…undeniably provocative…One can’t see this stage version without questioning an economy in which poor people subsidize the lifestyle of the middle and upper classes.” —Variety. “Daring…attacks the privileges of 90% of the people who will see it…Ehrenreich’s irrepressible sense of humor admirably translated from page to stage.” —LA Times. “Involving, important and urgently topical.” —Philadelphia Inquirer. “Penetrating clarity and sharp, illuminating humor…succeeds beautifully in creating the wearying reality of dead-end jobs and the people trapped in them.” —San Francisco Chronicle.

******************************
1957: A Sci-Fi Musical (working title)
Premise:
The year is 1957. Jailhouse Rock is opening in theaters across the
nation,
Sputnik II is carrying a dog through orbit around the earth, it is a
time of
great celestial activity, and even more importantly, the Sadie
Hawkins Day
Dance is right around the corner.
The film tells the tale of Billy Dever, an enthusiastic dreamer who
is
looking beyond his mundane high school existence to the wonders of
science and
life beyond our planet. Although he may be looking to the skies,
he'll have to
deal with local goon Brandon Bishop, captain of the boys basketball
team, and
red-scare obsessed Principle Spooky Thompson, here on earth. Luckily
he'll
have his buddies to help him, the skirt chasing Eddie Cassavette,
and the
quirky lovable Russian, Spuds.
As the days go on, Billy becomes more involved with his high-school
science
teacher, Professor Vadin who encourages Billy's love of science, and
leads
him closer to the truth behind the strange things occurring at
school.
About The Film:
Being produced as a musical allows 1957 to tap into the inspiring
music of
the era. From doo wop groups, to rockabilly, to crooning, and the
beginning
days of rock and roll, the film will take viewers on a musical
journey through
the adventure that takes place in Lehigh High School.
Breakdowns:
Spuds - Slightly on the geeky side, Spuds is one of Billy Devers
closest
friends, he was raised in America and is of Russian ancestory.
During the space
race, Spuds becomes obsessed with all things Soviet.
Principle "Spooky" Thompson - As principle of Lehigh High School,
Spooky has
developed a deep rooted fear of Communism which he has carried over
from the
red scare of the mid fifties. Paranoid of the impending fall of
capitalist
society, he is always alert and overly suspicious of his students.
Jaspers - The all knowing, wise, sooth-saying school janitor.
Cara-Ann - With a very wholesome image, Cara-Ann is the class
president, a
real "girl next door" type.
Tammy - The image obsessed, air-headed lead cheerleader, Tammy is
the most
popular girl at school.
Peggy Meyers - Peggy is a friend of both Tammy and Cara-Ann, and her
sensibilities lie somewhere between Tammy's image obsessed
popularity and Cara-Ann's
good natured wholesomeness.
Laney - Laney is Spuds girlfriend, and is slightly on the geeky side
just
like him.
Male Chorus Ensemble/ Featured Extra - We are also seeking various
males to
fill in the chorus/ensamble for the films many musical numbers, as
well as to
act as featured extras in the production.
Female Chorus Ensemble/ Featured Extra - We are also seeking various
females
to fill in the chorus/ensemble for the films many musical numbers,
as well
as to act as featured extras in the production.
We are seeking actors and actresses with both vocal and dance
training. To
be considered for any of these roles, please submit a resume and
headshot to
