"Mary Poppins" Child and Teen Audition for the Theater

Forest City, IA, United States
ID: 568392Exp: 5/13/2024
Description:

Auditions for children and teenagers for the theater production of "Mary Poppins" are being held. Please review the details below. About the project: One of the most popular Disney movies of all time is capturing hearts in a whole new way: as a practically perfect musical! Based on the books by P.L. Travers and the classic Walt Disney film, Disney and Cameron Mackintosh's Mary Poppins delighted Broadway audiences for over 2,500 performances and received nominations for nine Olivier and seven Tony Awards. The jack-of-all-trades, Bert, introduces us to England in 1910 and the troubled Banks family. Young Jane and Michael have sent many a nanny packing before Mary Poppins arrives on their doorstep. Using a combination of magic and common sense, she must teach the family members how to value each other again. Mary Poppins takes the children on many magical and memorable adventures, but Jane and Michael aren't the only ones upon whom she has a profound effect. May Even grown-ups can learn a lesson or two from the nanny who advises that "Anything can happen if you let it!" Additional info: Please prepare 30 seconds of a musical theatre piece or Disney song and be ready to cold-read selections from the show. Accompanist provided. A British accent is requested, but perfection is not required. Ages 8+. Please bring all calendar conflicts. Show dates: July 14-15 & 19-21, 2024 Callbacks: May 16. If you are interested, please apply.
