[Eagle eyed Bargeizens will notice that recent posters around the ship have been suddenly and boldly altered. They now read:]

ATTENTION!
I AM NO LONGER WAITING FOR ONE OF YOU TO WRITE A PLAY!

CHANGE OF PLANS!

~~CASTING IS NOW IN PROGRESS FOR THE PREMIER OF:~~

~~A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE~~

NOW WE'RE DOING:

FROZEN!

(AS ADAPTED FOR THE BARGE BY RHYS STRONGFORK)

OPEN AUDITIONS TODAY IN THE LEVEL 8 COMMON ROOM

(snacks provided.)

[Anyone who shows up will find that Rhys has set up a desk in front of a little clearing in the middle of the room, so that he can judge people, like this is a job interview.

On a second desk, there are in fact snacks provided.]

[Private to Elijah and Betelgeuse]

Hey, Elijah.

We were talking, and we wondered if you'd like to come for a walk with us in the enclosure? Maybe tonight?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Are you sure you won't be busy? I noticed the posters.

Daytime auditions, night time enclosure walks.

You're also welcome to come judge people with me if you want?

No, thank you. But the walk sounds...nice.

[Wolf does not know what a Frozen is. She's fuzzy on an audition. But it sounds weird and entertaining, so of course she's going to show up.

Also, snacks, snacks help.

Never anything but direct, she waves to Rhys when she lumbers in.]

I don't know what's going on but it sounded funny.

Oh, you don't know Frozen? It's so good.

[Rhys doesn't seem to care if she's a serious thespian.]

It's about these two sisters and one of them gets ice powers! Annnnd we're gonna do a play of it, so I hope you have a monologue and a song prepared.

[A beat. Then.]

Can I read the monologue?

[ The Joker appears because he expressed interest before the title changed, and... he has no familiarity with this. At all, and since there's not really anyone on the network to message with questions, why not just show up like he's still auditioning for the previous play? ]

So is there a Stanley in this one, too? Haven't exactly seen the script.

Oh, we've done a major pivot. More songs. But there kinda is still a Stanley, so whatever audition material you've prepared...

[Will be fine. Rhys gestures to the audition clearing.]

[ Really. He wipes the corners of his mouth. Was he a theatre kid back in high school? Definitely not. But he could do an impression. He read pretty clear when the teachers would just have the whole class open to a page and call on a bunch of nervous, often half-literate kids to read aloud. Never went out for school plays -- not that there was guaranteed to be even one each year. Rural public schools are like that. But he might have spared several hours in the last couple weeks re-learning a bit he remembered being called on to read in school. (ooc: Page 4, Monologue 1)

His delivery, to his credit, isn't Brando, because he went over it long enough that something more like his old stomping ground felt more appropriate on his own tongue. Made the words fall out easier, and there probably aren't that many Stan Kowalskis with Chicago accents -- thicker than his regular tenor, but it felt right for the part. Even if that part doesn't exist anymore.

He wants to see what Rhys will do. He wants to see what the Wardens will let them do. ]

[Stan's swung by not so much to audition, but to raid the snack desk.]

So, what happened to Streetcar anyway?

Hey! Snacks are for Auditionees only! So unless you've got a song lined up, get your paws off the pretzels!

[An authoratative point!]

Streetcar didn't have enough songs.

Tris hasn't looked at her communicator in a few hours. She's been baking again, and she and Harry can't keep up with the demands of eating all her cookies. She dropped some off for Fives, but has a plate left to leave in a random common room. She draws up short when she sees Rhys at his table.

"Hello. I didn't realize the room was occupied. I just planned on leaving cookies. I try to alternate common rooms for that sort of thing."

Ooh, hey, cookies! Rhys waves her in.

"Hey-- come in! Tris, right? Actually, I wonder if you could do me a quick favour?"

How does he con someone into auditioning without telling her that's what she's doing?

[After someone's very loud audition, once they leave, Ford sticks his head into the common room.]

Hey, what's going on in here?

Hey Ford. Grab a script!

[Rhys pushes one across the table towards Ford. Because telling people that these are auditions feels like a fool proof way for then to decide not to audition.]
