"A 1940's Radio Christmas Carol" Seeks Teen Boy

Westerly, RI, United States
ID: 571731Exp: 8/9/2024
Description:

Audition for a boy for "A 1940's Radio Christmas Carol". Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: Whether it's the noisy plumbing, missed cues, electrical blackouts, or the over-the-top theatrics of veteran actor, but radio novice, William St. Claire, this radio show is an entertaining excursion into the mayhem and madness of a live radio show. St. Claire's escalating foibles and acting missteps propel the show to a simultaneously comedic and heart-wrenching dramatic climax: St. Claire has an on-air breakdown, and begins to connect his own life with that of the classic Dickens tale. In order to "save the show," the company improvises an ending to Charles Dickens' classic as a film noir mystery, featuring a hardboiled detective, a femme fatale, and an absurd rescue of Tiny Tim (and the Lindbergh baby) from the clutches of a Hitler-esque villain named Rudolf! Additional info: Please request a date and hour long time slot. You will receive a confirmation email within a week of the audition date. Please bring a headshot/recent picture and resume, if you have them available. Prepare 16-32 bars (approximately 30 seconds) of a song that you are most comfortable singing. An accompanist will be provided, so please bring sheet music if you have it. If not, acappella singing is happy accepted. You may be asked to read sides at the audition. Callbacks will be held later that week, Date/Time TBD If interested, please apply.

"LITTLE" JACKIE SPARKSMale15-18 y.o.All ethnicities

Not actually "little," but young. A tenor with a high speaking voice. Having just graduated from high school, Jackie, only 17, lives with his mom in suburban Newark. Calls home probably a dozen times a day. Teased a lot. Still has a Sunday paper route.
