- Résumé
- Voiceover Work - I was the voice for the TBO.com radio and tv advertisements for two years and have a few other voiceover credits. I have a very soothing, textured voice but I use my voice like an instrument and I can flavor it with any emotion or accent.
I also have some experience on the radio as a guest host on WMNF 88.5.
Poetry - I am a published poet and a well received reader.
Performance - I have performed with the Irritable Tribe of Poets in front of crowds as large as 750-1000. Working with ITOP, I have opened for Jim Carroll, played Tropical Heatwave numerous times, as well as performances at the Salvador Dali Museum, one of which the museum produced as a CD for sale in their gift shop.
Visual Art - Numerous group exhibitions locally
- More about me:
- I am a mixed media artist and a literary poet with some publication. i like to look under things and on the ground for art supplies! but i love to muck pretty things up with good old fashioned paint. without dark, there is no light. my work explores the darkest corners of ourselves where the light hides.
I am also a core member of the Irritable Tribe of Poets - it's a collective of poets and musicians that work improvisationally together. but it's no beatnik picnik...it's real music - blues, rock, ethereal, funk, jazz....
we have recordings for sale in the Dali museum gift shop, and on line and have performed at Tropical Heatwave, opened for Jim Carroll at the State Theater, and have performed special shows at the Dali Museum, among other notable performances.

OPEN AUDITIONS:
Ellen Mueller is seeking physical and improvisational performers of all types for two free collaborative workshops exploring the concepts of success and evaluation.
About the Workshops and Ellen Mueller:
These two free workshops will be led by Ellen Mueller at the University of South Florida Marshall Student Center, February 28 & March 1, Noon – 4:00pm, and April 4 & 5, Noon - 4:00pm. The approach for these workshops is based on techniques gleaned from yoga, the Brave New Institute – an improvisation training center in Minneapolis, MN, the Theatre of the Emerging American Moment – a theatre company dedicated to dissecting and celebrating the experience of living in America today, and Viewpoints – a technique for building ensembles and creating movement. Specifically, we will explore our collective response to the concepts of success and evaluation. Our goal is to gather and develop images, ideas, questions, situations, and characters through the practice of movement and improvisational exercises. Participants can expect to learn about the Eight Secrets of BNW Creativity, as well as an approach to collaborative creation. The material collected will be used as research for new performance works, and may lead to future collaborations with workshop participants.
Ellen Mueller was raised in Fargo, ND and currently lives and works in Tampa, FL. She received a BA in Theatre and Art, and a BS in Design Technology from Bemidji State University. She is currently pursuing her MFA in Studio Art with emphasis on performance at University of South Florida. For more information about recent projects, please visit EllenMueller.com
Audition Details:
Tuesday, January 6, 2009, 7pm – 9pm
University of South Florida
Fine Arts/FAH Room 280
4202 E. Fowler Avenue

Instructions:
Wear clothing appropriate for movement. Please bring a headshot, or a snapshot that clearly displays your face. No prepared material is necessary. The audition will consist of movement and improvisation exercises, and may be conducted individually or in groups as the schedule allows. If you have any special talents, musical skills, etc, please be prepared to share them. You will be asked to indicate which of the two workshop dates you are available for, or if you are available for both. To reserve an audition slot, please email Ellen at emmuelle@mail.usf.edu with your availability between 7-9pm on January 6, 2009. If you are interested in the project, but are unavailable on this audition date/time, please feel free to contact Ellen to make alternative arrangements.
Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions.
Please also try to make Thursday's meeting at the Globe if you can (you can stop by anytime between 6pm-10pm).
Thanks again!
