Casting Kids for "Seussical: The Musical"
Auditions are open to youth ages 7-18 for "Seussical: The Musical". Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: The Cat in the Hat tells the story of Horton, an elephant who discovers a speck of dust that contains the Whos, including Jojo, a Who child sent off to military school for thinking too many "things." Horton faces a double challenge: not only must he protect the Whos from a world of naysayers and dangers, but he must guard an abandoned egg, left in his care by the irresponsible Mayzie La Bird. Although Horton faces ridicule, danger, kidnapping and a trial, the intrepid Gertrude McFuzz never loses faith in him. Ultimately, the powers of friendship, loyalty, family, and community are challenged and emerge triumphant. Additional info: Prepare a 1-2 minute dramatic or comedic monologue and be prepared to recite it at auditions. Please also prepare 16-32 measures of an upbeat musical theater song.
