"Hadestown: Teen Edition" Show Needs Teens
Seeking Falmouth High School students for "Hadestown: Teen Edition" Show. Please see the details below. About the project: Straight from the Broadway stage this musical follows the classic greek tale of Eurydice and Orpheus. Following two intertwining love stories – that of young dreamers Orpheus and Eurydice, and that of immortal King Hades and lady Persephone – Hadestown invites audiences on a hell-raising journey to the underworld and back. Inspired by traditions of classic American folk music and vintage New Orleans jazz, Mitchell’s beguiling sung-through musical pits industry against nature, doubt against faith, and fear against love. Additional info: Auditioners will be seen in order as they arrive NO SIGNUP NECESSARY. Auditioners will be asked to sing a cut from a song of their choosing that showcases their vocal range (classic tunes like Happy Birthday are acceptable). An accompanist or bluetooth speaker will be provided for backing. Auditioners will also be asked to dance with a group so please wear comfortable clothes you can move around in and footwear you can dance in. No Sandals/Crocs please. See the attachmmet for details. If interested, please apply.
