"It's a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play" Seeks Teen Performers

Looking for teens to join "It's a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play." Check out the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: Tune in. The holidays are about to come alive. It’s Christmas Eve, 1946, and the cast of radio station WBFR is bringing you a live broadcast of the most beloved holiday story ever told. Watch as a small ensemble of actors voices dozens of characters, conjuring an entire world, and the town of Bedford Falls, with nothing but microphones, sound effects, and pure theatrical magic. Follow George Bailey, a man who gave up his dreams again and again to help his neighbors, as he reaches his breaking point on Christmas Eve and is visited by Clarence, an angel still trying to earn his wings, who shows him what the world would look like if he’d never been born. Warm, witty, and wonderfully nostalgic, this charming production is a love letter to old-time radio, community, and the people who make life worth living. Rate: Actors in It’s a Wonderful Life will be paid $250 total Additional info: This show is performed by five actors (three men, two women) playing a company of 1940s radio performers who, in turn, voice dozens of characters live on air. Expect quick switches between voices, some doubling as children, and plenty of ad-libbed crowd work. Double-casting roles may shift a little based on actors’ skills, but below is a general outline. Performances: Weekends December 4th-13th at the Fangmeyer Theatre December 4, 5, and 12 at 7:30 pm December 6 at 2 pm December 13 at 5 pm Rehearsals: The directors anticipate a four-week rehearsal period. Exact dates are still being finalized, but we will have Thanksgiving off. Please come with a resume. Sides will be provided at the audition, and we may incorporate some live sound cues, so come ready to play. This is a great audition for performers who love character work, quick timing, and a bit of vocal gymnastics. Please see the attachment for details. If you are interested please apply.
