( well, she's no stranger to the network by now, but this will be the first time Izumi's had cause to address the network as a whole. she checks the message several times before sending it, reworking pieces and wishing Kazunari was here to spruce the overall look up a bit.

a plain text advertisement is a little dull, isn't it? )

[ Well, this looks curious! ]

Curry Bread roulette?! Please tell me there's meat in there too.
... I'd eat it even if there weren't, but!
What sorts of plays are you going to do?

[currysseur]

Of course! We'll offer vegetarian and meat-filled options!

( they'll have slightly different flavour profiles to bring out the best of the meat versus the veg, but she can do that. )

All sorts! We currently have actors specialising in everything from action to drama and comedy.

( she has faith in her boys, and anyone else she recruits here. )

Exactly what kind of production are you hoping this is going to be
And are the funds just going to the theaters or are people going to get paid

[He needs money to support his pet god…]

[currysseur]

Ideally, we'll be able to continue to offer a variety of genres by using a selection of actors on a rotational basis.

( whether the seasons system will work here, only time will tell. but that seems like a fair summary of what she wants Kaika to become.

and... well, since they're not offering room and board to their actors here... )

We'll pay our actors, of course!

( please don't ask her for a breakdown her player does not have a clue yet. )

Make sure Hyodo isn't involved with the fundraising goods.

[ We don't need him eating the product they have to make money on! ]

Also, whose idea was it to name the place "Kaika"?

[yankiisuwari]

[currysseur]

( sigh. he's probably right about that first part. sorry, Juza-kun. )

Mine.

( and she stands by it. Mankai isn't Mankai without all of them here, Taichi is right, and besides, Mankai is the name her father chose. she loves it, but if this is a new company with a new future (and no yakuza debt), then they should have a new name to match. )

It's a good name right?! We decided it while you were busy blocking me.

Hehe does this mean I'm your boss a little bit now?

I'm not really an actor but I've worked on stage productions before!

[ In a manner of speaking. For all that they'd set her up as a director in Salem, she hadn't worried too much about that. ]

If nothing else I'm good at set work so I'd be interested in that!
I don't have to audition for that though do I?? (・・ ) ?
I mean I can if I have to
But I don't even know how that'd work

We need some muscle backstage

[ Juza would be happy to pass on his side job of carrying moving boxes. ]

I have not worked in the cast or crew of plays before, myself, but I have always been an avid patron. Would that be sufficient to help out?

[tsumtsuki]

I think having a passion for theater is a great place to start. I know some actors who started after seeing a memorable performance.

Are you interested in becoming an actor yourself, or helping backstage?

setting up a theater troupe huh

okay im in

[currysseur]

Great! We'll see you at the audition.

[morganknight]

Whatcha looking for in terms of time commitment?

[currysseur]

It will vary, but our actors have always been able to keep up with school and work while rehearsing and performing. Because we work on a rotational basis, you'll have downtime between plays too.

Or do you want to know about the backstage work?

You're the best, Director-sensei!!

[currysseur]

Thank you, Taichi-kun. We couldn't do it without you.

you just had to lure them with curry here too, huh

[currysseur]

Curry is the staple food of any street vendor! The variety in flavours, in spice levels! It's perfect for a roulette!

Hello!

My name is Anna and you had me at enjoying cupcakes and hot chocolate, but I'd also be interested in becoming an actress there!

[currysseur]

( you know, they always had an all male troupe, but Izumi would love some fellow ladies in the mix. it would be a nice change. )

Nice to meet you, Anna! I'm Izumi Tachibana, Kaika's director. We'd be happy to have you audition, please come along!

( ooc; Tay added a form to fill out on the business page linked in the main post if you wanna get her in on things! <3 )

[dottedline]

Are you and your company open to performing at a restaurant?

you were always here of course ;D

[currysseur]

Absolutely! Several of our founding actors have experience working in Actors Cafe settings, and we're always looking to expand awareness of our troupe.

[ Since Izumi has so nicely set the stage (ba-dum-tsst), Tsumugi replies as well. ]

Hello. My name is Tsumugi Tsukioka, and I am one of the founding members of Kaika Company. While I don't want to speak on anyone else's behalf, I personally would be interested in hearing more about this opportunity.
