Casting Teen Actors for "Grease" The Musical
Opportunity for singing auditions in "Grease" production. See the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: Here is Rydell High’s senior class of 1959: duck-tailed, hot-rodding “Burger Palace Boys’ and their gum-snapping, hip-shaking “Pink Ladies” in bobby sox and pedal pushers, evoking the look and sound of the 1950s in this rollicking musical. Head “greaser” Danny Zuko and new (good) girl Sandy Dumbrowski try to relive the high romance of their “Summer Nights” as the rest of the gang sings and dances its way through such songs as “Greased Lightnin’,” “It’s Raining on Prom Night” and “Alone at the Drive-In Movie,” recalling the music of Buddy Holly, Little Richard and Elvis Presley that became the soundtrack of a generation. Additional info: Performances: July 24-26, 31, and August 1-2, 2026 For your audition, please prepare 30 seconds or 32 bars of a song in the style of Grease (50's rock style) and a 30-second comedic monologue. You are welcome to bring your own pre-recorded accompaniment. The directors will also have you do a short reading that will be provided. No experience necessary! Please be familiar with the characters (descriptions can be found lower down on this page) and music before you audition, and be prepared to list any conflicts you may have with the rehearsal period (June 1 through July 23, with performances beginning July 24). Tentative rehearsal dates will be provided at auditions. If you are interested, please apply.

(Range: Alto) The 'beauty' of the Pink Ladies; pretty and looks older than the other girls, but betrays her real age when she opens her mouth. She tries to act sophisticated.
(Range: Alto) Funny, loud, and awkward member of the Pink Ladies. Loud and pushy with the girls, but shy with boys
(Range: Tenor) The youngest of the guys; small, boyish and open, with a disarming smile and a hero-worshipping attitude towards the other guys. He also plays the guitar.
