Description:

Kid and teen auditions for singing in "White Christmas." Please review the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: White Christmas is a beloved musical that blends heartwarming romance, festive cheer, and memorable music. The story begins with Bob Wallace and Phil Davis, two talented performers who served together in World War II. Bob is a charismatic and principled singer, while Phil is his charming and playful partner. After the war, they become a successful song-and-dance duo. Their lives take an unexpected turn when they meet the Haynes sisters, Betty and Judy. Betty, the older sister, is elegant and sensible, while Judy is vivacious and spirited. The four of them team up and travel to a quaint Vermont inn, only to discover that it's owned by their former commanding officer, General Waverly. The General, a respected and kind-hearted man, is facing financial difficulties with the inn. Determined to help, Bob, Phil, Betty, and Judy decide to put on a spectacular Christmas show to draw in guests and save the inn. As they prepare for the performance, romantic tensions arise: Bob and Betty navigate their growing feelings for each other, while Phil and Judy's playful flirtation blossoms into love. The musical is filled with enchanting songs, including the iconic "White Christmas," which evokes a sense of nostalgia and holiday spirit. With its rich character development, delightful humor, and a heartwarming plot, White Christmas is a celebration of love, friendship, and the magic of the holiday season.
