Teen Audition For Singing in "Sleeping Beauty"
Teen singing auditions for "Sleeping Beauty" – see details below. About the project: In the Sleeping Beauty Panto, expect the basic story of Princess Aurora's curse and her 100-year sleep, but with added comedy, songs, local jokes, and sometimes featuring modern twists. Expect dazzling costumes, sets, and choreography, with the aim of creating a vibrant and entertaining experience for all ages. Zendora the witch takes her revenge for being excluded from a royal christening, by casting a wicked spell on the baby Princess, that will see her die on her eighteenth birthday by pricking her finger on a spinning wheel. Aurora’s parents do everything they can to prevent Zendora’s wicked curse from coming to pass, but as predicted the Princess pricks her finger and appears dead to the world. But Fairy Slumber intervenes and puts her to sleep for one hundred years instead. Additional info: You will read from the script and perform a dance routine taught at auditions. To be considered for a solo role, you will need to be prepared to sing the chorus of a song of your choice. Those not interested in a solo role may sing Smash Mouth's "I'm a Believer" in a group. If you are interested please apply.
16 roles
A poor farm boy. He is the one who moves our story along and the one Princess Aurora falls madly in love with. (Dialogue on 20 pages, featured singer)
The Sleeping Beauty. She is our princess who is excited for her 18th Birthday Party, but is not happy that her parents never let her go anywhere or do anything. Why are they so worried...especially today? But she has a plan to get out of the castle and blend in with the villagers before her party. (Dialogue on 17 pages, featured singer)
The comic villains. These are two characters, but they are always together. Brothers that are new to town and desperately trying to earn some money. They will do anything to get a paycheck and team up with the evil Zendora to do her bidding. However, they are a few sandwiches short of a picnic, so things never seem to go right. *These characters will have lots of room to ad-lib and play off of each other. (Dialogue on 20 pages)
The village idiot. Think “Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure” type of idiot. Someone who has spent a bit too much time out in the sun. Walter gives us a lot of our one liner jokes throughout the show. (Dialogue on 13 pages)
Two cooks that have a very funny scene in the castle kitchen. They are only these characters in one scene so they will be doubled up as other parts during the rest of the show. (Dialogue on 8 pages, comedy song)
