Teens Needed For "Dear Evan Hansen" Play

ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE CONSIDERED. Seeking teens for "Dear Evan Hansen" play. See the details below. About the project: With a book by Steven Levenson and music and lyrics by Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, Dear Evan Hansen is the story of seventeen-year-old, Evan Hansen, who has felt invisible his entire life. But when a tragedy shocks his community and thrusts him into the center of a rapidly evolving controversy, Evan is given the opportunity of a lifetime: the chance to be somebody else. As his web of well-intentioned lies begin to unravel, though, Evan is forced to confront the fact that the price of belonging may be far steeper than he bargained for. Please note this show sensitively addresses themes of mental health and suicide. Additional info: Auditionees ages 16-18 must have parental permission. Performances are August 14-16, 21-23, and 28-30. Actors should bring a prepared vocal solo of 32 bars from a contemporary musical (not Dear Evan Hansen) or a pop music selection. Solos should be songs that showcase acting interpretation as well as music skills. Bring sheet music. An accompanist will be provided. No a capella solos. Callbacks will be held on Wednesday, June 10. Attendance at callbacks is highly advised. For more information, please see the attachment. If you are interested, please apply.
