Casting Call for Boys and Girls for "The Gift of the Magi"

Midland, PA, United States
ID: 574242Exp: 9/25/2024
Description:

Students in grades 7-12 are invited to audition for "The Gift of the Magi" Show. Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: Jim and Della eat potatoes for dinner every night and stuff their boots with newspaper to get by, but everything they want is for each other. They're so head-over-heels in love they can make a cozy home in turn-of-the-century New York with little more than the coins in their jam jar. But what's to be done about Christmas? When a strange twist of fate leads the young couple to find the perfect gifts for one another at an unexpected cost, Jim and Della learn the true meaning of the holiday. Classic Christmas carols punctuate this sweet and joyful retelling of the O. Henry story. Additional info: Please arrive at least 10 minutes prior to your scheduled audition time to check in and fill out any necessary paperwork. Please prepare a one-minute dramatic or comedic monologue. Those interested in a Caroler track, please prepare 1-2 verses of a Christmas Carol to be sung acapella.
