Young Talent Wanted for Singing Audition "Xanadu Jr."
Metcalf School students in grades 4-8 are invited to audition for "Xanadu Jr." Musical. Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: "Xanadu JR." is inspired by the Tony Award-nominated Broadway musical and the Universal Pictures' cult classic movie that starred Olivia Newton-John and Gene Kelly. Xanadu JR. is a moving, electrifying tale of endless fun that will keep audiences in stitches while the original, legendary chart-topping tunes lift them out of their seats. "Xanadu JR." follows the journey of a magical and beautiful Greek muse, Kira, who descends from the heavens of Mt. Olympus to Venice Beach, California, on a quest to inspire a struggling artist, Sonny, to achieve the greatest artistic creation of all time – the first Roller Disco. (Hey, it's 1980!) But, when Kira falls into forbidden love with the mortal Sonny, her jealous sisters take advantage of the situation, and chaos abounds. Additional info: The musical is a process that rehearses 5 days a week. Although almost every performer will only be called 2-3 times a week early in the process, once you arrive in February everyone will be called for most/all rehearsals and attendance will be mandatory. This is due to the collaborative nature of the process and we MUST have students present to get everyone set up for success. Note that the fee will be involved.
