Young Talent Wanted for "Something Rotten" The Musical
Upcoming auditions for the hit musical "Something Rotten" seeks boys and girls. Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: Welcome to the Renaissance, where the Black Plague has ceded power to the Puritans, farthingales and codpieces are the latest fashion trend, and the biggest celebrity in England is a playwright named William Shakespeare. In the midst of all this excitement, brothers Nick and Nigel Bottom are trying to keep their acting company afloat. In a desperate attempt to out-Bard the Bard, Nick consults with a soothsayer, who informs him that the future of theatre involves acting, singing, and dancing -- sometimes all at once! As the Bottom brothers strive to write the world’s very first “musical”, they find themselves caught in a bitter battle with the Bard and the play's the thing. Something Rotten! is a hysterical, joyous celebration of everything you love about Broadway. Additional info: Auditions will take place in 5-minute appointments. Each actor should prepare to sing a 60-90 second cutting of a musical theatre song. Please bring sheet music for our accompanist. While singing with the accompanist is preferable, an audition by a singer without instrumental accompaniment will work as well. We just want to see you!
