2) Who and what we are looking for

b) Fursuiters who don't have an own skit, but want to be on stage and are willing to join in on others performances.
c) Video contributions that can be presented on the big screen at the stage.


You can do anything from a short sketch or playback song to a complete performance with props, special light and sound, together with other suiters or whatever you find entertaining.
Ideas that go with the Serengeti theme are encouraged, but not mandatory.
Humans are allowed on stage, if they are accompanied by a suiter and are an integral part of the act.

4) FAQ and information about your participation


Q: Is this part of the Fursuit GAMEshow and fursuit-games ?
A: No. StageFever is the Eurofurence Version of Furry-Night-Live. It is a stage show that consists of individual skits and stories. The fursuit GAMEshow is a different event.

Q: I have never been on Stage before. Should I volunteer ?
A: Absolutely yes. We welcome beginners as well as professionals. But we need to rely on your presence, because you may be part of a group act. There is no excuse for not showing up once you are part of the show.

Q: I don't know what to do on stage.
A: Doesn't matter. Once applied, you have access to the special board, where you will find other skits that you can join.

Q: Can I be part of more than one skit ?
A: Yes of course ! You can contribute several skits, you can be part of several skits.

Q: Will there be a rehearsal for the show ?
A: Yes, there will be a mandatory rehearsal the day before the show that you have to attend. You do not need to be in costume for rehearsals. Additionally, we highly recommend to rehearse your skit beforehand if possible in any way. The more you have practiced your skit, the more comfortable you will feel.

Q: I have an idea, but i need others to help me with the performance.
A: No problem. Once applied, you have access to the special board, where you will find others, waiting to join your skit.

Q: I have a special idea for the show, but it's a secret.
A: All skits have to be posted in the hidden board and need to be approved by the show manager. That board can only be read by participants and staff. So your secret is all safe there. For various reasons it is not possible to have unknown skits on stage.

Q: Can I discuss my ideas with someone ? I need help.
A: All discussion and planning is done in the hidden board. Once you post your idea there, we will help you as much as technically possible.

Q: Can I use video / pictures / music / live and recorded audio in my skit ? Can you arrange this for me ?
A: Yes, you can use all of these and our skilled staff will happily help you to make it work. All info about that can be found in the hidden board, once you applied.

Q: Is there a deadline for applying ?
A: Yes, there will be. Most important is to tell us right now that you want to participate. The deadline for finalising your skits is the mid august. But you need to have applied to join in before that.

Q: I still have questions
A: Good, that means that you still haven't lost interest. Just message Mystifur and you will get all the answers you need.

Your StageFever Team.
