Kid Performers Needed for Theatre Audition "Shrek The Musical"

Rhinebeck, NY, United States
ID: 574392Exp: 10/14/2024
Description:

Open auditions for "Shrek" the musical. Seeking boys and girls ages 7+. Please see the breakdown below. About the project: Based on the Oscar-winning DreamWorks Animation film, Shrek The Musical is a Tony Award-winning fairy tale adventure, featuring all new songs from Jeanine Tesori (Thoroughly Modern Millie; Caroline, or Change) and a sidesplitting book by David Lindsay-Abaire. Shrek brings all the beloved characters you know from the film to life on stage and proves there's more to the story than meets the ears. "Once upon a time, there was a little ogre named Shrek...." And thus begins the tale of an unlikely hero who finds himself on a life-changing journey alongside a wisecracking Donkey and a feisty princess who resists her rescue. Throw in a short-tempered bad guy, a cookie with an attitude and over a dozen other fairy tale misfits, and you've got the kind of mess that calls for a real hero. Luckily, there's one on hand... and his name is Shrek. Additional info: Directors strongly encourage all gender identities to audition for ANY role. They also encourage women, persons of color, and LGBTQ+ individuals to audition. Directors are committed to equity, diversity, and inclusion in all areas of the work. Prepare/Bring: Prepare 60 seconds of a song you feel great singing. Bring sheet music for the accompanist or a track. Bring your schedule so you can provide an accurate list of rehearsal conflicts. Be prepared to list your performance and/or dance experience or bring a resume. Show directors your fun side. Callbacks: Wednesday, October 16 @ 7:00 PM. Performance Dates: January 4 - 26, 2025. Fridays & Saturdays at 8 pm, Sundays at 3 pm, Saturday Matinees at 3 pm: 1/11 & 1/18 If you are interested, please apply.
