CTP Bio

 
What’s in a Bio?
A bio is a chance to brag about your work and show who you are as a person. Most people reading your bio aren’t ever going to meet you, so this is an excellent chance for them to find out something about you as a person. It’s not a place for you to personally thank every member of your family for their support. Unless no one besides your family is going to see the play you’re in, it’s best to limit the thank you and inside jokes. Make your bio something everyone who sees your play will care about.

What IS in a bio?
You’ll want to list a couple of credits. If you don’t have any, this is a perfect place to say “Sam is making his theatrical debut.” But the general rule, keep it simple and only list your most well known or best work. There’s no reason to list thirty credits in your biography. To be fair we are only allowing 65 words. Please be kind. It is time consuming for us to chop a 120 word bio down to 65 words. Anymore and you’d better have a Tony or an Oscar gathering dust on your mantle. Give up a little information: who you are as a person. By telling something about who you are as a person you help the audience like you as a person before you step foot on that stage. Hobbies and funny anecdotes always fit well in this area.
