Description:

The show "A Backstage Christmas" is seeking children and teens. Please find the details below. ONLY VA, MD, AND LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: Elise Garland wants a quiet Christmas, so she can focus on the holiday rush with her online marketing business. But when her son Noah is offered a stage role in “Bob Crachit’s Toy Shoppe” at a local amusement park, she can’t say no, especially when dynamic actor Calderon Myles makes a desperate plea. It’s a far bigger commitment than Elise realized — intense rehearsals, a demanding performance schedule, and even the dreaded Secret Santa exchange. But with Noah loving every minute, she can’t help but take on some of the holiday cheer – and take note of Cal – whose enthusiasm for the stage and the season has warmed her heart. But when she’s forced to make a decision that will not only affect Cal’s Christmas present but also his Christmas future, will she also derail a second chance for love? Additional info: Performance: Sunday, December 22 at 2:00 pm Location: Potomac Falls, VA Please refer to the attachment for details. If you are interested please apply.
