Reagle Music Theatre of Greater Boston has announced auditions for its 43rd summer season, which includes revivals of "Oklahoma!" July 8-17 and "Fiddler on the Roof" August 5-14. Additional week extensions are possible. Rights for "Fiddler on the Roof" are still pending approval. If "Fiddler" is unavailable, then either "The Sound of Music" or "Guys and Dolls" will be the alternate selection.
Adult Equity and non-union candidates are invited to audition for principal and singing roles in both shows on Saturday, April 16 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday, April 17 from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Principals are sought for all roles, plus strong male and female singers are needed for the ensembles and to play key minor roles. Adult auditions are open to performers 14 and up. No appointments are necessary.
A non-union dancer call is scheduled for Saturday, April 23 at 10 a.m. Excellent male and female dancers are sought for both shows. "Oklahoma!" will be choreographed by Tony Award recipient
Gemze de Lappe, who famously recreated her colleague
Agnes De Mille's renowned "Oklahoma!" choreography for the 1979 Broadway revival. Multiple IRNE Award nominee
Susan Chebookjian will choreograph "Fiddler on the Roof."
Candidates are asked to bring at least two copies of their headshots and resumes to each call.
