Acting
Training
Casting and
Trainers have been working hard to revamp Basic and Advanced Actor
Training to give our actors more opportunity to learn and practice
techniques, behaviors and specific roles in the show. All
actors with less than 4 years experience with Scare and/or NABL should
attend Basic Actor Training. More experienced actors are
encouraged to attend this training. Due to the early start of
this year's show, training locations may vary. Please review
them closely. Basic Training will take place at City Hall and
Beaver Lake Park.
Advanced
Training will be offered on-site at Beaver Lake Park. You are
encouraged to attend any or all of the Advanced Training sessions.
There will
also be some specialty training required for certain roles.
This training will take place following Advanced Training sessions, but
is still in the planning phase. More information will be
available at the picnic and later this summer.
We will be
taking photos of all actors. If yours was not taken during
Orientation, arrive 30 minutes before training. For those
attending both Basic and Advanced Actor Training, we suggest you bring
a sack lunch and beverage.

you have
any questions regarding Acting and Casting, please contact Penny at

takes a lot of work to build a
show of the quality and magnitude of "The Nightmare at Beaver
Lake." We
have a lot of work to do
and are ready for you to come help.
Work parties are currently underway Tuesdays from
7-9 p.m. at the Kent

HOLD
HARMLESS APPLICATIONS
Please
remember that ALL participants in the Haunt need to
complete new Hold Harmless Applications yearly.
These will be available at the picnic and will be found at the
workshop. Please complete and return
yours ASAP.
If
you're interested in designing rooms, or assisting in operation, please
feel free to ask for entrance to our group board on Facebook,
at: The Scare Productions Group site
SEARCHLIGHT
NEEDED
Many
visitors have found the Haunt by tracking down the
location through searchlights. We want
to bring in more visitors by having a searchlight that is easily seen
for
miles. We are currently looking for a
big searchlight to accomplish this. If
you happen to see one while you are out and about, please get the
company's name
and phone numbers and pass them on to Curt at
If you're
just
stumbling on this site, Scare Productions is the theater group that
produces haunted houses for charities. Presently, we focus on producing
the Nightmare at Beaver Lake with the Sammamish Rotary and Sammamish
Youth Club. We are a non-profit, all volunteer collective.
