Young Talent Wanted for "Descendants: The Musical"
Kids between the ages of 8 and 18 are welcome to audition for "Descendants: The Musical". Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: This high-energy show features iconic, show-stopping choreography, fast-paced, witty dialogue, and a playlist packed with rockin’ songs that’ll have the audience dancing in their seats. With bold characters, fierce dance battles, and a fresh, edgy vibe, this is your chance to play a villain (or hero!) like you’ve never seen before. Don’t miss your chance to be part of something magical, modern, and totally unforgettable! Based on the popular Disney Channel Original Movies, Disney's Descendants: The Musical is a brand-new musical jam-packed with comedy, adventure, Disney characters, and hit songs from the films! Imprisoned on the Isle of the Lost – home of the most infamous villains who ever lived – the teenaged children of Maleficent, the Evil Queen, Jafar, and Cruella De Vil have never ventured off the island… until now. When the four troublemakers are sent to attend prep school alongside the children of beloved Disney heroes, they have a difficult choice to make: should they follow in their parents’ wicked footsteps or learn to be good? Additional info: Please come prepared to sing approximately 45 seconds to 1 minute of a Broadway or musical-style song that fits the energy and vibe of the show—think bold, fun, and a little bit edgy, like the music in Descendants! You may sing a cappella or bring a backing track. In addition to vocal auditions, there will be a group dance audition, so wear comfortable clothes and shoes you can move in. If an actor is needed for a callback, they will be asked to stay later that same evening to do some readings from the script. Rehearsals will be at RPAC Sundays 2-5; Mondays and Thursdays 5-8. (No rehearsal Thursday, July 3) Performance Dates: August 22-24. If interested, please apply.
