Casting Teen Actors for "American Idiot" Play

Audition for the play "American Idiot". Seeking teens ages 16+ for the ensemble. Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: American Idiot is a sung-through rock musical based on the 2004 concept album of the same name by rock band Green Day. After a run at the Berkeley Repertory Theatre in 2009, the show moved to the St. James Theatre on Broadway. Previews began on March 24, 2010, and the musical officially opened on April 20, 2010. The show closed on April 24, 2011, after 422 performances. While Green Day did not appear in the production, vocalist/guitarist Billie Joe Armstrong performed the role of St. Jimmy occasionally throughout the run. The story, expanded from that of the album by Armstrong and director Michael Mayer, centers on three disaffected young men, Johnny, Will, and Tunny. Johnny and Tunny flee a stifling suburban lifestyle and parental restrictions, while Will stays at home to work out his relationship with his pregnant girlfriend, Heather. The former pair look for meaning in life and try out the freedom and excitement of the city. Tunny quickly gives up on life in the city, joins the military and is shipped off to war. Johnny turns to drugs and finds a part of himself that he grows to dislike, has a relationship and experiences lost love. Additional info: Call backs: 11/1. If interested, please apply.
