Young Talent Wanted for Singing Audition "Cinderella"
Seeking young performers for singing auditions for "Cinderella." See full details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: Originally presented on television in 1957 starring Julie Andrews, Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella was the most widely viewed program in the history of the medium. Its recreation in 1965 starring Lesley Ann Warren was no less successful in transporting a new generation to the miraculous kingdom of dreams-come-true, and so was a second remake in 1997, which starred Brandy as Cinderella and Whitney Houston as her Fairy Godmother. As adapted for the stage, this romantic fairy tale still warms the hearts of children and adults alike. Additional info: Please note: there is a production fee applied. Performances August 6 and 7 – 10 am August 6, 7, 8 & 9 – 7:30 pm August 9 & 10 – 2 pm Prepare a 1-minute cut (approximately 32 bars) of a musical theater song or any song you feel confident and comfortable singing.

Please see the attachment for details. If you are interested, please apply.
16 roles
(soprano) Kind-hearted beauty with an infectious generosity of spirit. Though she has been flying under the radar, she comes fully into herself as an articulate, dynamic woman with a great deal to say.
(soprano) – Cinderella’s fairy godmother in disguise. Warm with a spark of wackiness she lifts the magic in the show and highlights what is possible!
(mezzo-soprano) – Cinderella’s selfish stepmother. A vain and tyrannical climber. Deeply concerned with status and image and entirely dismissive of her stepdaughter. Comic timing essential. Traditional musical theatre character voice.
(mezzo-soprano) – One of Cinderella’s stepsisters. A brash, bratty young woman, who never passes up the opportunity to be the center of attention. Not particularly bright.
(mezzo-soprano) – One of Cinderella’s stepsisters. A brash, bratty young woman, who never passes up the opportunity to be the center of attention. Not particularly bright.
(baritone) – The prince of the kingdom leads with heroic bravado but deeply naïve and not always quick on the draw. In search of his purpose. His kindhearted nature spills into an endearing goofiness at times. Light comedic touch essential.
(baritone/tenor) – The keeper of the court. Announces all events.
(mezzo-soprano) – The Prince’s lovely mother. Always wants the best for her son, and does her best to keep her husband in line. At times serious, but always affectionate.
(baritone) – The Prince’s father. A bit of a fuddy-duddy who loves his son and wife, and always has the best of intentions.
