Special Project: "Fields of Gold: The Music of Sting"
Bird is teaming up with ACT's Young Conservatory to present Fields of Gold: The Music of Sting this summer.

Auditions for band members for the Bird/ACT production will be held Monday, March 19 from 7:00-9:00pm at Bird. We are looking for guitarists, bassists and drummers/percussionists ages 14-18. See below for audition details and then call 441-3551 or email info@bird-sf.com to sign up for an audition slot.

Those of you who saw the Beatles show know what a great alliance this is and the potential it holds for the serious musician.

Fields of Gold "pays tribute to one of the truly great singer/songwriters of the 20th Century. Featuring a wide variety of music, woven into the fabric of an original story, the production will feature the genius and heart of Sting's music–from his days as the leader of Police to his greatest solo offerings, in an exciting theatrical presentation." For more information, see the Conservatory website.

For your Sting audition:
  • Prepare and play one song written and performed by Sting
  • Prepare and play one song of your choice
  • Be ready to discuss your interests and experience
  • Arrive 5 minutes before your call time with your instrument (amplifiers and drum set will be provided)
Auditions will take approximately 10 minutes.

The cast will be announced on March 21, 2007. Rehearsals begin March 28. Performances at Zeum are Wednesdays through Sundays beginning June 1 and ending June 17. Applicants must be willing and able to commit to all rehearsals and performances.
