"Cinderella" Show Needs Boys and Girls

Students in grades 1–12 are welcome to audition for the production of "Cinderella". Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: Missoula Children's Theatre (MCT) will present Cinderella, an original adaptation of the classic fairy tale. A pumpkin coach, Prince Charming, a glass slipper, and a dream come true are woven together by the magic of a Fairy Godmother in this enchanting musical. When Cinderella’s stepsisters try to keep Cinderella from attending the ball, the Fairy Godmother enlists the help of the Mice and the Pumpkins and is able to transform Cinderella just in time for the big event. Also featured in the production are Cleo the Cat, Fido the Dog, the Lords and Ladies, the Town Criers, the King and the Beggars. Experience the unique twist the MCT puts on this classic story. Additional info: No advance preparation is necessary. Please arrive by 3:30 p.m. to allow for registration/check-in. Students should plan to stay for the entire session (4-6 p.m.) Students who have been cast will also stay from 6:15-8:15 p.m. for the start of rehearsal. There will be a 15-minute break in between. (Bring your own snack.) Approximately 50-60 local children will be cast to appear in the show. Unfortunately, there is no guarantee that everyone who auditions will be cast in the play. There is no charge for participation. Rehearsal Schedule: Most students will rehearse approximately 4 hours and 15 minutes each day, Monday through Friday at the Weber Center for the Performing Arts. Rehearsal times will be 4-6 p.m. and 6:15-8:15 p.m. with a 15-minute break in between. (Bring your own snack.) Although not all cast members will be needed at every rehearsal session, those auditioning must have a clear schedule for the entire week and be able to attend all rehearsals for their role. Rehearsals are open to parents and teachers who are not disruptive, but it is also fun for students to surprise them at the performance at the end of the week. Performance Information: Saturday, Jan. 17, 2026 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. If interested, please apply.
