Atop the marble staircase in the Entrance Hall along the corridor that will direct you to the moving staircases, you stumble across a long, horizontal cork bulletin board that is encased in glass. Here you will find an array of notices and signs, stick up by tacks and push-pins, that are meant for the entire student body to read. Anything from requests, advertisements, lost and found notices, and gentle reminders can be viewed for all eyes to see.
If you have something you would like to add to this colourful, paper-filled board, you are more than welcome to do so. Simply slide over the glass surrounding the board (it is never locked) and stick on the board whatever it is you wish for everyone to know. Having this board for your use is a privilege, not a right, so use it responsibly. Any crude drawings or messages will result in the bulletin board crumpling them up and throwing your balled notice at your face, giving you a deep paper cut, before you even have a chance to slide the glass back to its original place.
On the ceiling above, the red hawk painted last term still lingers though appears to be dried and slightly faded...
Paul wasted NO time in hanging up the flyer on the student bulletin board, VERY TOP TOP. His eyes were drawn to the hawk...in the dried blood...and he sighed, ruffling his cloud like white hair atop his head and...that was that. The play would be happening....and...he'd be MUCH CALMER this term, yeah?
After making sure it would stay...he smiled and headed off, trying not to let that hawk get to him OR remind him of being cursed. Nope. Not today, Morgana.
SPOILER!!: OOC Info
So last term we did put on a play, but it's going to work very differently this term. We won't be RPing everything out as much, and it will be more of an IC reference for those of you all with characters in the play.
First thing: those of you who are new/returning after a long hiatus should check THIS link out with all the extracurriculars available for your lovely characters <3 Add your person's name in wherever fits. Go on find the Drama Club and sign your character's name in one of the slots underneath. Even if they want to do lights, work on scenery, or anything else that involves theatre, add their name in! In order to audition your character's name must be on that list.
Next: PM me the details. I want:
Character's Name
Character's House
Character's history/interaction with acting before this
Select a monologue that one could have for a "cold reading" at an audition and copy/paste it
Rate your character from 1-5 how well you think they'd do with the cold reading. Be realistic to your character.
Can your character sing or dance? Does this character also want to act, or just participate in either singing or dancing?
Note: We need singers and will also welcome anyone who wants to dance and NOT have a speaking role as well. If you can't sing? Don't fret. Paul has a plan in place if you, say, get the part of Dorothy and have a lousy singing voice.
Then, a cast list will be posted at some point on this very bulletin board. We will NOT be full out RPing the practices and the play at the end of term, but we may have little readings here and there if members WISH to have it. Going for a less structured look this term. <3 Any questions? Feel free to reach out to me via any way you can (VMs, DMs, Skype, Trillian, PMs, owl post, or putting a note in a bottle and then trowing it into the ocean) MUWAH!
PS: you've got about two weeks to get this info to meeeeee! (until January 19t)

First chance Skylar had on her way from the Great Hall after breakfast, the sixth year made a beeline for the Bulletin Board. Except it seemed there was already a notice up there, but regardless it wouldn't interfere with the auditions. AND she knew that any students wanting to tryout for their house quidditch team would need a broom, pronto. Double win, really.
After tacking it onto the board, Skylar tried to not notice the faded hawk on the ceiling as a reminder of the strange events last year, instead heading off toward her first class day.
SPOILER!!: OOC info
So Skylar got a new broom for captaincy and as a result, she's selling her old one. Although, it's not that old. It's a Firebolt x-treme.
Basically this will take place IC just before tryouts occur, ooc, it'll run simultaneously while tryouts are happening. And just a fun little way to meet people XD
Also, it'll take place here, which I'll make a post sometime today. <3

Early in the morning, way before lessons were to begin and even before breakfast, Regina made her way down to the bulletin board at the top of the marble staircase. She hesitated, taking in the sight of that fading hawk, but quickly carried on with her purpose for being there. Parchment in one hand, she used her other to open the glass casing and tacked on an announcement:
Quote:
When is it?
Sunday, October 31. OCC: January 12 - 24.
What should you bring?
A bag of some sort - free candy will be distributed!
Your best behaviour.
What should you wear?
A school-appropriate Hallowe'en costume.
Satisfied with the placement, she closed the case and walked away. Hopefully everyone would enjoy their night of trick-or-treating in Hogsmeade when it came.
Paul probably should have lied about the time he would be posting the cast list up....because there would be more than a few vastly disappointed people. Oh well. This was LIFE, children, and more than that.....this was how the acting world worked, didn't it? Disappointed was a big part of it.
Regardless, he was happy with his decisions and also who he had chosen to be dancers and singers and ALLLLL the things. He looked around hurriedly, saw no one, and quickly STUCK the list on the wall.
And there it was.
OOC: Make sure you look at the ENTIRE thing because your character probably has either multiple roles AND parts in songs or dances or any number of combos of that. Any questions or concerns OOC wise, PM me. If you want a good idea of what your character's role looks like, this script is a good idea of what the musical looks like (just as a play, not a film, obviously)
If any characters would like to talk to Paul about why they did/did not get the roles they wanted, let's RP! VM me deeeeets lovelies! <3 I'd like to play SOMETHING with the play at some point and possibly the after celebration for the play later on in the term.
Three Tots (Lollipop Guild) Stephanie Fanelli, Vivian Fairfield, NPC
Munchkins Gunnar McCarthy, Other NPCs
Wicked Witch of the West Melbourne Sorin-Ward
Apple Trees Jessa Cambridge, Shera Ben-Ari, Stephanie Fanelli
Jitterbugs Gunnar McCarthy, Zoryn Spinnet, Kaysha Stewart
Poppy Flowers Emmalyn Walsh, Rylee Pritchard, NPC
Emerald City Doorman Farah Dubey
Emerald City Guard Jessa Cambridge
Oz’s Voice and Oz Flynn Kowalski
Nikko, leader of the winged monkeys Zita Valla
Other Winged Monkeys: Shera Ben-Ari, Other NPCs
Songs/Dances
Nobody Understands Me (Dorothy Sings)
Over the Rainbow (Dorothy sings + Vivian Fairfield, Stephanie Fanelli, and Zita Valla are backup vocals and will be on stage, swaying as Dorothy sings)
Let your light shine || Be the sun || You're important. Always.
Just so happened to be walking down the corridor and saw Professor Myers skirting away before she realized that the cast was UPPP!!!!! Farah excitedly ran to the board and looked at the part of Dorothy which she was gunning for. She ran her finger to the name at the top..... and it was not her.
Well.... that's okay! The girl who got it probably did GREAT. Okay... so what part did she get?? Running her finger down the cast list, she saw her name. Barrister? Huh? She glanced further down the list and saw she had another part as well. The Emerald City Doorman. She couldn't help but giggle at that. Okay, so it wasn't the lead... but she had two parts in the play! She could deal with that.
She'd do better next year!
Knowing Steph auditioned too, Farah looked for her name and grinned when she saw what she was playing. A tot from the Lollipop Guild and an apple tree. Oh! And she got a song! Three parts! She was proud of the bestie. She skimmed through the list to see who else had gotten parts. Julie! Zita!! Jessa!!! Rylee!!!! Alright!
So she didn't get the part she was hoping for, but Farah was happy. She was in a play. Her natural ability would flare. Now, to tell people! She skipped off in search of friends to tell.

play with uuuuuuuuuuus? :3
astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf
There was A LOT going on this term already and Derf felt himself floundering like a guppy on dry land. And all THAT was just dealing with being FOURTEEN. He had sorta gotten into the swing of prefecting stuff - sort of...at least he had the right badge now thanks to a talk with Professor Myers and all that - and he was BEYOND jazzed about quidditch things. Starting beater alongside Kimi - who he admittedly did not know all THAT much about but this gave him a good opportunity to do that. Though the brief encounter he and Emmalyn had had during tryouts sorta had made him keen on trying to play alongside her in the position. They had had good communication and stuff but he was sure she would make an awesome chaser with Hattie (STILL WORRIED) and Isa, of course. Scarlett for keeper was exciting as well, but he was kinda the MOST excited about Bel making seeker - no offense to anyone else but it was nice having a strong personal connection with someone in that position because of what being a beater MEANT and stuff. He had already been talking loads of strategy with Isa since summer, but it had been super SUPER awesome to kick things up a notched recently now that the team was set.
Prefecting, being a confused teenager, and quidditch aside...lessons and homework and tutoring some in Creatures made one one very busy and distracted Derf...which meant he kinda sorta toooooootally forgot about the play auditions. Which was quite something given how traumatic things had been LAST term and he had had a good long think over whether or not to audition to begin with.
It really wasn't until he saw Farah peeking at the bulletin board and then skipping away that he was reminded about the cast list...and his bright blues narrowed on the sheet stuck to it that his friend had been looking at.
HOLY FLAMING SALAMANDERS! WAS THAT IT?!
Darting forward while pulling Scamander from his pocket (you know, for moral support) Derf's eyes INSTANTLY went to the part he had auditioned specifically for (the Scarecrow) and..........his face dropped. It was kind a cruel and ironic choice casting Olivia there since, well, the last time the older Gryffindor had taken a fall .....the Hufflepuff gave a bit of a shiver at the memory but knew she would do a great job. She was limber and stuff and always gave her full effort into everything she did...so he couldn't really be upset about that.
Still, his little heart sank a bit and he figured he ought to just start at the top and work his way down. Junia for Dorothy seemed...incredibly fitting and it brought a small smile to his face. Though he didn't think her to be as naive as his image of the character was, so it would be super neat to see her interpretation and own personality bring something SPECIAL to the character. Stasya for Aunt Em was adorable and very fitting for his friend's motherly aura. At least when she was around creatures. Seeing her handling Albus and well...any creature really always made him smile. Skylar for Uncle Henry seemed sorta fitting...at least what he remembered of the bloke being kinda judgey and set in his opinions. Pretty fitting really. Julie for the Tin Man...hmmm...Derf wasn't sure what to think about THAT since the Tim Man wanted a heart and Julie seemed to have one of those since she was kind and friendly and like...SUPER friendly with people. He had heard some stuff from Jessa, you know? Maybe it was a search for love when it came to one Julie Bellaire then.
Though Derf gave his hair some heavy duty ruffling thinking about that because um...no more complicated thoughts, please?
Either way, Julie would be brilliant, he was sure and it would be neat to see her play off Olivia's Scarecrow and the Cowardly Lion of....
"ABEY!"
He couldn't help himself. He was SO excited! THIS WAS PERFECT CASTING! AND NOT IN A MEAN WAY AT ALL! BECAUSE THE LION ALWAYS HAD HIS COURAGE ALL ALONG AND JUST NEEDED TO LEARN THAT HIMSELF AND SDLFJDLKJFSJLSJFSLSJSFLJSFLSJ! NOT TO MENTION THE INNOCENCE AND JUST THE WAY ABEY THOUGHT ABOUT HIMSELF AND OTHER AND JUST...ABEY WAS THIS LION RIGHT DOWN TO BEING A GRYFFINDOR! Derf wanted to go find Abey and tackle him and ......... stuff......... and he nearly bolted from the bulletin board to do just before recalling that he still hadn't found his name soooooooo down the list he went. Though now he was BOUNCING as he read through the list and, honestly, didn't really care now if he was not cast at all.
Hanna...he was not familiar with her...nor was he with the role of the Crow...but he reckoned it would be good in any case. Olivia and her, it would be fun to watch. Zoryn...as the Wicked Witch of the East. Um...didn't she DIE in like...the very beginning? Maybe Professor Myers was trying to teach her a lesson in patience seeing as, you know, she had been the GROUND last term and now a role where she got killed off right away but a house...and lay on the GROUND during most of her performance. Professor Marvel portrayed by Ronan...he could see it. Hattie as Toto would be ADORABLE and he was grinning thinking about it. Hattie and Junia as a duo....like...that was a nice image.
"Hey...that's....ME?"
Derf had to take another moment or two as he saw his name on the list. As........Glinda? Suddenly all the questions and jeering looks about bubblegum pink he had been getting in the corridors made sense and Derf, honestly, was not sure WHAT to think about that. Pleased he was cast, of COURSE, Derf's finger rest on his name riiiiiiiiiiiiight under Glinda's and he just..sorta needed to process this for a second, okay?

Haraldur hovered on his broom up to the Bulletin Board. He stuck his announcement on the board and gave it a quick last glance. The message was short and only quickly scribbled down but he was sure all students involved would get the message. He then leaned back to leisurely, hover towards the Great Hall to enjoy some long overdue dinner.

Hogwarts was.... not that bad. Well, except how huge the castle was that made her often get lost many times. Diandra had to make herself a simple map and some little notes on her journal. That's why she had never left without the journal. Aside from the place itself, the people here were.... nice, she could say. But still, the badger had a difficulty to make friends because... Well, she was shy and at the some times she tend not to trust people easily which was kind of ironic, Di. Anyway she's trying and hopefully she could survive the social life of Hogwarts and slowly adjusting herself.
After spending time in a library, the badger decided to get some food at the great hall. It wasn't really late for grabbing a meal, was it? Diandra often got lost in time when she was in library and didn't realize that she had been there for hours until her stomach grumbling. While she headed to the great hall, she noticed a familiar blonde guy looking at the bulletin board. Oh wait, how could she never noticed about this board before? Never mind, that wasn't the point. "Hey." Diandra greeted him and smiled. What was he looking at, by the way? Oh right, there was an audition for Wizard of the Oz play that Professor Myers had announced before and apparently the cast list had been announced.
Oh, did he join the cast audition? She didn't know that. But then his name was seen on the cast list.... as Glinda the good witch. Well, that didn't sound bad. "Way to go, Derf." Even though he got woman role but she didn't think it was a huge problem.

Derf was still a tiiiiiiiiiiiiny bit too preoccupied with his own thoughts to notice Diandra's approach...and sorta her initial greeting of 'hey' which sounded like a distance voice halfway across the castle. It wasn't anything BAD he was feeling....just confused.
"You...reckon Professor Myers means for me to act as a....girl?" he asked sheepishly, moving his eyes away from the cast list and on to Diandra. He had heard her congratulatory greeting, and the faint smile that tugged at the corners of his mouth were an indication of his appreciation for it ... but his mind was kinda sorta REALLY preoccupied elsewhere. "I can't really hit those kinds of notes anymore when I sing...but singing as a bloke while dressed as a lady kinda adds this comical element that...you know...takes away from things...at least I think..."
Was he over thinking this?
Holy flaming salamanders he was going to go bald by the end of the term given all the hair ruffling he was doing.

A guy playing a girl's role. Hmmmm... She didn't really see there was a problem with that, especially in this era. Maybe he wasn't really comfortable with that but perhaps Professor Myers had his own reason why he chose Derf to play that role instead of other girls. "I think so." Diandra said, tapping her chin. "Maybe you should ask him about this..." She didn't have any experience with theatrical performance so she couldn't really give him a suggestion. Ooops. But the voice... Yep, the badger knew why he felt the part was not suitable for him. So Derf really needed to talk with Professor Myers.
"Initially, what part did you want to get?" She asked curiously. Diandra had only seen the movie once and tried to remember the characters there... Those characters was posted on the notice board right? Seeing the cast names, she saw some names that was familiar like her dorm mates Steph and Farah... Then there's Zita, Hattie, Vivian... "At least you got a bigger role than just an apple tree or a flower, right?" Cue a little grin.

"At least you got a bigger role than just an apple tree or a flower, right?" Cue a little grin.
Derf was busy ruffling his hair, though he DID hear Diandra speaking to him and he was nodding along in acknowledgement. He knew their Head of House was unconventional, it was something that Derf could admit to always liking about the man - conspiracy theories aside - and considering the caliber of girls that had tried out...there HAD to be a reason. But he wasn't even properly dancing in the script from what he could see on the list...though he was sure that he could always ask to include a dance number. Derf didn't particularly LIKE showcasing himself, but he was kinda proud of himself for being a bit of a triple threat and, well, he wanted to dance and move around on stage.
Was why he had auditioned for...
"The Scarecrow," he said, answering his friend's question as he smiled over at her. He knew what she meant, but it wasn't a competition on who got a bigger role or what - he wasn't jealous of anyone, not really - but it was like when you saw this bowl of ice cream and you THOUGHT it was strawberry but then when you popped it in your mouth you found out that it was peppermint. Just a shock to the system, yeah? "My monologue was even one from the character," he added a bit sheepishly with a small chuckle. "Figure I may as well try to take advantage of my lack of coordination, you know?"
Somehow getting his hand to stay OUT of his hair, he slid them both back into his pockets and turned properly towards his fellow fourth year. "You didn't audition?"

But he wasn't even properly dancing in the script from what he could see on the list...though he was sure that he could always ask to include a dance number. Derf didn't particularly LIKE showcasing himself, but he was kinda proud of himself for being a bit of a triple threat and, well, he wanted to dance and move around on stage.
Was why he had auditioned for...
"The Scarecrow," he said, answering his friend's question as he smiled over at her. He knew what she meant, but it wasn't a competition on who got a bigger role or what - he wasn't jealous of anyone, not really - but it was like when you saw this bowl of ice cream and you THOUGHT it was strawberry but then when you popped it in your mouth you found out that it was peppermint. Just a shock to the system, yeah? "My monologue was even one from the character," he added a bit sheepishly with a small chuckle. "Figure I may as well try to take advantage of my lack of coordination, you know?"
Somehow getting his hand to stay OUT of his hair, he slid them both back into his pockets and turned properly towards his fellow fourth year. "You didn't audition?"
The scarecrow. "Ah, I see." She nodded and imagined if Derf had gotten that part. Well.... perhaps he could've nailed it too but since Diandra had never seen him acting so this might be an invalid opinion. But deep down she thought that the Hufflepuff prefect as Glinda would be perfect since he did have some of the character's traits... Oh, maybe that's the reason why Professor Myers chose him to be Glinda.
As he asked if she went to the audition, Diandra gave him a sheepish smile. "Ah, I didn't." She answered as she tucked her hair behind ear. "I've never been in a play before and... I don't think it really suits me?" She was rather shy in front of people and it's a little bit of struggle for her to speak in front of several people, let alone going on a stage performing something. Although back in primary school, she once played a solo flute on school performance. But it was different since it was music and she had been playing that instrument since she was young whereas acting was just a whole new thing for her.

He wasn't really mad, but he was disappointed a tad..and perhaps a little jealous of Olivia if he was being entirely honest. Though a lot of that was still the shock and just not quuuuuuuiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiite understanding why he had been cast as Glinda, the Good Witch. Though he did agree that he ought to ask Professor Myers proper about this because, well, in any case they needed to discuss how best to portray the character. Drag, genderbend, whatever other options there were...
"That's alright," he smiled, nudging her lightly with his elbow playfully. "Maybe some other time when you feel more comfortable at Hogwarts and stuff. Cause...you know, you're already sorta out of your comfort zone as is...being a transfer for another country and all." Not meaning to stir up any homesick feelings or anything. Just being completely honest. "If you wanted to though...you could get involved in other ways...like with your flute playing."

Was he really going to do this? It did seem a bit desperate (okay, more than a bit), but then again, he was sort of desperate. Okay, that thought was just sad. Almost enough to say forget it and turn right around to the Great Hall. But then, his Gyrffindor-ness kicked in and he opened the glass case around the bulletin board and stuck his hand-made poster over the notice about the Halloween Hogsmeade Weekend (they were way past Halloween at this point anyway).
Once he was sure the poster was stuck safely to the board, he quickly closed the case and hightailed it out of there. What, Ronan didn't want to be caught sticking the poster up there. Hopefully, no one would recognize his handwriting at the bottom.

Gaston emerged from his office for a few moments to make his way to the bulletin board. He willed himself not to look at the fading hawk as he opened the glass case, but his eyes seemed to have a mind of their own and darted toward the ceiling. He shuddered. Better hurry up and post his announcement before he became too lost in the bad thoughts brought on by that hawk!
Taking care not to cover any of the other messages, he put up a simple, neatly printed flyer:
