progWent to a reading of Alcestis this evening. In attendance were a bunch of folks, some of whom I recognized from my little bit of work on the Wanda June set, sitting around a table and taking turns reading through the whole play. Fun! I ended up reading all of Chorus 2's bits. One fellow who read a major character's lines gave a particularly stunning performance for an informal cold-reading. (Even if he had practiced beforehand, he still didn't have foreknowledge that he'd be reading that particular character's lines.) Most people there were less scary than that, fortunately.
End result is that I now have a better idea which character(s) I'd like to try for. Pretty good. I'm feeling pretty psyched about the auditions in two weeks.
The director (and hence everyone else) pronounces the title "Al-SESS-tiss", while Classics geek M is fairly certain that it ought to be "Al-KESS-teez". We'll see.
