NEEDING REPLY (Stuff from You)
-Playbill:  Below are three different templates you may choose from for your bio.  Alternatively, you may fill in the "blank form" I've provided and I will choose one of the templates for you.  This is not to take away your individuality, but rather to present the most professional front possible, as this is the audience's first introduction to you and to the Sundance theatrical experience.  The producers and I reserve the right to edit for space if necessary.  This is due Friday 5/20 @ 5 pm.

BLANK FORM TEMPLATE (For PSM's choice):
*Name (as you want it listed--yes, some people have variations for their stage name):

*# of Years you have performed at Sundance:

*3 Previous "Favorite" Roles, including show and location:

*2 Personal facts/accomplishments you'd like to share (job, where you attended school, award you received, how many kids you have, etc.):

*Anyone you'd like to thank:

CHOOSE YOUR OWN TEMPLATE:

You must follow this set of guidelines:

MLA Format

Title of play: Capitalized & Italics (no quotations)

Character: No font change (quotations)

Obviously the highlighting and carrots <> are to indicate sections that must be changed by you, and the previous roles' billing and personal facts are just examples of how to do it correctly.  (It's a very special person that gets cast as Horton, Kozette, and John Proctor!  :D)  You just need to fill in your personal details, with the MLA formatting listed above. :D
