About the project: Game On! is an original, teen-centric, Pop-Rock musical inspired by beloved board games that highlights the battles LGBTQ+ individuals and families face every day. People travel through the town where, in the face of intolerance, a modern family seeks to reconnect with each other, a young woman grapples with her identity, a mother finds her voice, and a community decides what it stands for. Friends, family, and community need to come together if they’ll have a chance of changing the minds of those who would run them out of town. Additional info: - Please prepare a 32-bar cut (approximately one minute) of a contemporary Musical Theatre song. - An accompanist will be provided; please bring piano Sheet Music, printed and in a binder, or a downloadable file ready to be sent to the accompaniment. - There will be a movement section, so please wear comfortable clothes. - Please bring a printed copy of your theatre resume and headshot.
