By: Faetra Petillo Oct. 31, 2008
According to IMDB, the documentary "Showing Up" by director/producer Riad Galayini will be aiming for a 2010 release.
The film, which is produced by James Morrison, will feature interviews from an array of stars, many of them Broadway veterens.
"In this feature length documentary, we celebrate the resolve and resilience necessary for an actor to simply show up, as our finest actors reflect on their most memorable audition experiences, what the process is, and how they feel about it. Showing Up is a fond acknowledgment of the many facets of an actor's mission to break in and seize the moment when it's offered. It's also a deep look at the courage and fortitude it takes to keep going back into the room time and time again. Whether you're an artist or not and regardless of the path you've chosen, we think you'll find something here that speaks to you," describes press notes.
