Actor (m/d) as "Defense Attorney" for "The Jury Experience" in Vienna

"The Jury Experience" by Fever (Fever Labs Inc.) has been running successfully in Vienna for a while, but has so far been performed by the Munich cast. From February, we will be starting our own cast for Vienna and possibly other venues in Austria and are therefore looking for reliable actors with completed acting training, professional stage experience and permanent residence in Vienna.

"The Jury Experience" is a series of interactive plays that always revolve around a fictional court case. The audience always takes on the role of the jury and can actively vote to decide whether evidence is admitted or witnesses are heard and whether the defendant is convicted or acquitted at the end. Depending on the audience's decisions, the play continues in different ways. The actors must therefore react to constantly changing audience votes. As the audience is part of the story, we play completely without a fourth wall.

Our first case in Vienna is about the theft of a diamond necklace worth millions.

We offer:

• Rehearsal fee: 900,- Euro net

• 400,- Euro daily fee (two performances at 200,- Euro per day)

• 150,- Euro travel allowance for performances outside of Vienna

• If applicable. Takeover of further cases within the series (of course again with rehearsal fee)

• A motivated team, respectful cooperation and a pleasant working atmosphere

Please send us your application:

• Letter

• Cv in tabular form (showing studies and previous activities)

• At least one current portrait picture and one full-body photo

• At least one video in good quality with a theater monologue (live recording or recorded at home)

• Further photos, videos (e.g. About Me, reviews/reviews), videos (e.g. a video of a theater monologue) are welcome. About Me), reviews/reports, etc. as links (not absolutely necessary)

Please also indicate in your application whether you can also imagine working for us as an understudy. Understudies learn and rehearse all roles of their gender, play when the main cast is absent (same fee as for the main cast) and receive a daily fee of 100 euros for their willingness to play - which also includes keeping all play dates free for us up to one week in advance.

Please send us your complete application by 15.12.

After the application deadline, we will invite selected applicants to audition via Zoom.

For this we are looking for an actor for the role of defense attorney Frank Gosford.
Mister Gosford would prefer to remain inconspicuous and not be at the center of a sensational trial. He has spent his career representing shipping companies and oil suppliers in lucrative but publicly invisible deals. He would never act illegally himself, but he operates in an area that many would consider unethical. However, when his old friend Jack Clifton called, he couldn't say no - implicitly owing Jack (the defendant) a favor and fearing possible consequences of refusing. As a lawyer stepping in at short notice, Gosford feels overwhelmed and unprepared; but he is a good improviser and this plays into his hands. As the trial progresses, he gains increasing self-confidence.

Since travel and accommodation costs cannot be covered, we are explicitly ONLY looking for actors with a permanent residence in Vienna!

• professional stage experience

• accent-free German at native speaker level

• permanent residence in Vienna

• Experience with interactive theater is desirable, but not essential. However, you must definitely have a desire for it!

• Impro experience helps

• You must be able to invoice! (Freelance work)
