AUDITIONS: "The Farce of the Fart"

All Augsburg students are invited to audition for "The Farce of the Fart", to be performed at Mardi Gras Madrigals on February 21.

"The Farce of the Fart" is the opening play in a newly-published collection of plays, entitled "The Farce of the Fart and Other Ribaldries: Twelve Medieval French Plays in Modern English," edited and translated Jody Enders (2011).

Terry Jones — former Monty Python member and close friend of Augsburg's Medieval Studies program — describes the collected plays as follows: "Scurrilous, sexy, stupid, satirical, scatological, side-splitting, and probably something else beginning with 's,' Jody Enders's translation of twelve French farces is a real discovery that goes a long way to re-adjusting our perception of the Middle Ages. Enders is a great champion of comedy at its most vulgar and hilarious. She points out that however silly or banal these farces may appear to us, they nonetheless confront the real controversies of their day over the law, politics, religion, social order, or the battle of the sexes."

"The Farce of the Fart" deals with two spouses locked in the eternal conflict of "who farted?" Things escalate so far that husband and wife eventually take each other to court. High comedy ensues, complete with lots of gaseous sound effects.

This short Commedia piece will be performed at Augsburg's Mardi Gras Madrigals, on Tuesday, February 21 — Mardi Gras! This Augsburg tradition features madrigal music, story telling, jugglers, and a full medieval feast, eaten without utensils, of course.

Nathan Keepers will direct. Mr. Keepers, formerly of Theatre de la Jeune Lune, is now an Artistic Associate with The Moving Company. This is a rare opportunity to work with and learn from one of the Twin Cities finest comic actors.

Auditions will be held on Friday, January 27, 3:40pm, in Oren Gateway 114. An audition sign up sheet is on the door of the main-stage theatre. For more info, contact Phil Adamo, adamo@augsburg.edu.
