Casting Call for Boys and Girls for "Once On This Island"

Kids between the ages of 8-18 are invited to audition for the "Once On This Island" Show. Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: Ti Moune, a peasant girl, rescues a wealthy boy from the other side of the island, Daniel, with whom she falls in love. Unbeknownst to Ti Moune, the pompous gods who preside over the island make a bet with one another over which is stronger, love or death, the stakes being Ti Moune's life. When she pursues Daniel, who has returned to his people, Ti Moune is shunned because of her lowly status. Her determination and capacity to love, though, is not enough to win Daniel's heart, and Ti Moune pays the ultimate price; but the gods turn Ti Moune into a tree that grows so strong and so tall, that it breaks the wall that separates the societies and ultimately unites them. Additional info: Please prepare 16 bars or about 30 seconds from a song. Directors will provide a short side to do a cold reading from during the audition. A speaker will be provided for accompaniment track or an accompanist will be provided. Show dates: June 27th-30th. If interested, please apply.
