‘Temporary Celebrity’
Hey Streetprov Players!
On the 22nd of March (not the 15th as announced earlier) Streetprov will be putting on our next performance.
We will once again be meeting at the Nieuwmarkt for the event details. We will be meeting at 2 p.m., not 1 p.m. This is to give everyone a little bit more time to sleep off their saturday night hangover.
We’ll be performing ‘Temporary Celebrity’ for sure, and possibly 1 or 2 other scenes.
The scene will take place in Dam Square. The specific details of the event will be given beforehand. It will basically consist of one guy getting treated like a world-famous celebrity for about 2 minutes. This will involved screaming “fans”, intimidating bodyguards and confused on-lookers. The only props we need will be cameras. Please bring your cameras to the event and get ready to someone as famous as Brad Pitt, David Beckham and Barack Obama all rolled into one very confused stranger.
It is important to note that the person to be chosen as the “celebrity” will be a willing participant (sort of) who will have a sense of humor. If he has a postive reaction from the 1st couple fans, then he will be the event’s star performer. If he does not wish to be sign an autograph or pose for a picture, we will not continue with him as the scene’s ‘celebrity’.
The scene will conclude with all his ‘fans’ realizing that he is not the ‘celebrity’ who they thought he was. It is at this time that everyone quickly leaves the area, scattering in all directions, including his bodyguards. Leaving him, and many others who witnessed the scene, very confused.
The reactions from all who are not involved in the production will no doubt be fascinating to watch.
After the scene takes place with this willing ‘celebrity’, he will be asked if it is alright to use the footage for the video. If he agrees, great. If not, all footage will be deleted and we’ll perform another scene soon thereafter. We want this to be fun for everyone, even if they have no idea what’s happening.
If you can just make it for the one performance, it will only be about an hour of your time. If you wish to take part in a few other scenes that we will likely be filming, it will take 2 or 3 hours. And, like last time, we’ll all head to a bar or cafe afterwards and talk about the scenes. Everyone had a great time at the last event and we’re sure that this one will be even better!
Hope to see everyone there!
