Young Talent Wanted for Upcoming Singing Audition "Tarzan"
Young actors are needed for the "Tarzan" Musical. Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. Additional info: For your vocal audition, you will need to prepare and sing 16–32 measures of a song from a contemporary (1990s to 2010s) Broadway musical. A pianist will be provided for in-person auditions. When directors say “prepare and sing 16–32 measures of a song,” it indicates that you have some wiggle room. Don’t end mid-verse or mid-chorus. Several years ago, someone chose to audition with “Let It Go,” and stopped before singing the words of the title because that was at 16 measures! Don’t do that! Also, be prepared to dance. Show dates: July 18 through Sunday, July 20, and Friday, July 25 through Sunday, July 27. Directors do two performances on Saturdays. Friday performances are at 7:00 PM. Saturday performances are at 1:00 and 7:00 PM. Sunday performances are at 3:00 PM. The call time is two to two-and-a-half hours before the show starts. On Saturdays, the cast stays at the theatre from call time before the matinee until after the evening show. Rehearsals will be in-person and will begin the week of Monday, May 11. Please download the attachment for the audition packet and info. If interested, please apply.
