"Groundhog Day the Musical" Seeking Young Performers
Seeking young performers for "Groundhog Day: The Musical." See the details below. About the project: What if you were stuck living the same day over and over again? Meet Phil Connors, a cynical big-city TV weatherman sent to cover the annual Groundhog Day festivities in small-town Punxsutawney. After disdainfully covering the rodent's negative forecast, he awakens the next day only to discover it's February 2 once more. When he finds himself trapped in a time loop, reliving the same day endlessly, Phil must navigate his way through hilarity, self-discovery, and maybe even love. Inspired by the hilarious film starring Bill Murray, Groundhog Day the Musical features a book by original co-screenwriter Danny Rubin, and music and lyrics by Tony Award nominee Tim Minchin (Matilda the Musical). Join us for a rollicking mix of laugh-out-loud comedy and uplifting redemption. It’s a reminder that every day is a chance to change your life—and maybe the world around you.
