They won’t always let you read it, but when they do it will help you get a sense of whether it’s going to be a good film, and will help you make choices for your character that fit the script more closely. -Michael Bean, Owner & Head Coach, Biz Studio — STUCK THERE Production Company: Ji.Mi Productions/Simon Fraser University SUBMISSIONS Please send photo and resume to jimmyh@sfu.ca to schedule an audition.

[ ETHAN ] I’ve received three different emails about this project, they really want to spread the word. “Triple Sensation” is a spinoff from the term “triple threat” used to refer to actors who can also sing and dance. Acting + singing + dancing = triple threat. They’re holding open-call auditions in Vancouver, apparently you pre-register online and then show up to register on the day (?). A little time online will get you the info you need. If you decide to audition for this, be prepared to be in line with hundreds of other hopefuls. Since this is the second season, do your homework too. Watch some YouTube Videos of the first season, read everything on the Triple Sensation Website, get on BitTorrent and download some old episodes, whatever you can do. Use that research to help you choose audition pieces that are appropriate to the show, and start prepping them now. Good luck with this one! -Michael Bean, Owner & Head Coach, Biz Studio — TRIPLE SENSATION Production Company: CBC SUBMISSIONS: Pre-registrater for Open Call auditions online at www.triplesensation.ca, then attend the open call audition at the Vancouver Playhouse.
