Seeking Kids and Teens for Musical "Shrek"
Looking for boys and girls ages 8+ for the Musical "Shrek". Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: Based on the Oscar-winning DreamWorks Animation film, Shrek The Musical is a Tony Award- winning fairy tale adventure, featuring all new songs from Jeanine Tesori (Thoroughly Modern Millie; Caroline, or Change) and a sidesplitting book by David Lindsay-Abaire. Shrek brings all the beloved characters you know from the film to life on stage and proves there's more to the story than meets the ears. "Once upon a time, there was a little ogre named Shrek...." And thus begins the tale of an unlikely hero who finds himself on a life-changing journey alongside a wisecracking Donkey and a feisty princess who resists her rescue. Throw in a short-tempered bad guy, a cookie with an attitude and over a dozen other fairy-tale misfits, and you've got the kind of mess that calls for a real hero. Luckily, there's one on hand... and his name is Shrek. Shrek presents a treasure trove of creative opportunities, including costumes, sets, puppets (there is a fire-breathing dragon after all), and more! Shrek proves that beauty is truly in the eye of the ogre. Additional info: Download the attachments for details. If interested, please apply.
