Description:

Seeking boys and girls for "A Christmas Carol" show. See the breakdown below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: Based on the classic story, Ebenezer Scrooge is a prosperous curmudgeon who believes that personal wealth is far more valuable than the happiness and comfort of others. With an infuriated “Bah! Humbug!” Scrooge summates his feelings of Christmas tidings and charitable giving, but he’s forced to face his selfish ways when three ghosts on Christmas Eve lead him through his Past, Present, and Future. Thanks to their guidance, Scrooge recognizes his faults and greets Christmas morning with a cheerful “Happy Christmas” before spending the day reconnecting and sharing love with those who mean the most to him. Additional info: Callbacks October 26 by invitation. Songs must be memorized and kept to 60 seconds or less. The time limit will be enforced. Auditioners must provide their own pianist or backup track without vocals. Be prepared to completely fill out the rehearsal calendar at your audition with any and all conflicts that may arise during rehearsal. The production team is sacrificing time to be at rehearsals and it is pointless to rehearse with no one there. Be clear on your conflicts. Any conflicts reported after casting may result in a change of role or require withdrawal from the show. (A tentative rehearsal schedule is attached below. Please know that this is subject to change based on the need & availability of cast members.) Performances are December 16-21, including a matinee on December 21. There will not be double-casting therefore actors must be available for all performances. Prepare a Broadway song cut to 60 seconds or less. The time limit will be enforced. Bring a recent headshot – 4×6 color. Be prepared to completely fill out the audition form, including the rehearsal calendar with a list of conflicts between October 28 and December 21. See the attachment for more details. When applying, please sign up for an audition time, on October 22 or 23.
