Seeking Teens for “Firebringer” Play
Seeking young performers ages 16+ for “Firebringer” Play. Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: At the dawn of humanity, one tribe of cave people survive the many trials of prehistoric life under the wise leadership of Jemilla, the Peacemaker. Jemilla taught her people to express themselves, rather than bashing each other's heads with rocks and eating each other's babies. But one member of the tribe doesn't seem to fit in Zazzalil. She's always trying to invent things to make life easier… for herself. While out hatching her latest scheme, Zazzalil stumbles upon the most important discovery in history. One that will pit her tribe against wooly mammoths, and saber-toothed tigers, and change the world forever. She'll travel from omega to alpha, and become… the Firebringer. Join us in this irreverent comedy musical that tells the story of how humans first discovered fire. Additional info: Performances: 6/15/23-6/18/23. You are only required to attend ONE audition day. PLEASE PREPARE: 1) A 60-90 second cut of a musical theatre-style song of your choice; 2) A 60-90 second comedic monologue of your choice. *NOTE*: Although there is NO DANCE AUDITION REQUIRED for Firebringer, please expect to learn and perform easy to moderate choreography if cast. If you are interested, please apply.
