Child Auditions for Musical Production "A Christmas Story"
Actors in grades 4-8 are welcome to audition for "A Christmas Story" Show. Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: Based on the perennial holiday movie favorite, and from the Songwriting team behind the smash-Broadway hit, DEAR EVAN HANSEN, and the film LA LA LAND, we bring you the hilarious musical, A CHRISTMAS STORY, THE MUSICAL. This now-classic story follows bespectacled Ralphie Parker as he schemes his way toward the holiday gift of his dreams, an official Red Ryder® Carbine-Action 200-Shot Range Model Air Rifle (“You’ll shoot your eye out kid!”). An infamous leg lamp, outrageous pink bunny pajamas, a maniacal department store Santa, and a freezing flagpole are just a few of the distractions that stand between Ralphie and his Christmas wish. Additional info: Please prepare a 30-60-second cut of a song in the show's style. If you prefer an accompanist, the directors will have one on site. If you prefer to use a track, you may bring it with you, and they will have a Bluetooth speaker ready for you to use. Directors will choose one of the audition sides included in the attached packet for you to read during your audition. You may bring in a résumé or fill out a list of previous show experience upon arrival. Please come with any scheduling conflicts from now through the end of December. Production dates: Friday, December 5 - Sunday, December 7, 2025 Friday, December 12 - Sunday, December 14, 2025 (School matinee performances on December 4 & 5) If interested, please apply.
