Program Description

Description

Fort Bend County Libraries, in partnership with The Live Oak Playhouse, is pleased to announce the return of “Walking in Verse: An Interactive Poetry Event,” celebrating National Poetry Month, on Saturday, April 11, from 12:00 noon to 3:00 pm, at the George Memorial Library, located at 1001 Golfview Drive in Richmond, Texas.

The Live Oak Playhouse will hold auditions for featured performers for this event on Saturday and Sunday, February 21 and 22, from 2:00 – 4:30 pm, with a call-back audition, if necessary, on Saturday, February 28, from 2:00 – 4:30 pm, at George Memorial Library. No appointments are required, but please arrive 15 minutes early to fill out paperwork and review audition materials. Headshots and resumés are requested but not required. Auditions will consist of selections from each poet as cold readings, as well as engagement with director Stacy A. Bakri in an informal and improvisational format based on biographic information for each author. All materials will be provided at the audition, but auditioners are invited and encouraged to read about each author and their work prior to the auditions. 

Please contact Artistic Director Stacy A. Bakri at sbakri@liveoakplayhouse.org if you have any questions about these auditions.
