Theatre Downtown will hold auditions for Evil Dead: The Musical, the hilarious Off-Broadway hit, on Monday, March 28th from 6:00-10:00 PM. Auditions will be held at Theatre Downtown, 2113 North Orange Avenue, Orlando. Please call (407) 841-0083 to make an appointment.

Evil Dead: The Musical features book and lyrics by George Reinblatt and music by Frank Cipolla, Christopher Bond, Melissa Morris and George Reinblatt. Additional lyrics are by Christopher Bond, and additional music is by Rob Daleman. Theatre Downtown's production will be directed by Steve Mackinnon, with musical direction by Spencer Crosswell and choreography by Amanda Warren.

Based on Sam Raimi's 80s cult classic films, Evil Dead: The Musical unearths the old familiar story: boy and friends take a weekend getaway at abandoned cabin, boy expects to get lucky, boy unleashes ancient evil spirit, friends turn into Candarian Demons, boy fights until dawn to survive. As musical mayhem descends upon this sleepover in the woods, "camp" takes on a whole new meaning with uproarious numbers like "All the Men in my Life Keep Getting Killed by Candarian Demons," "Look Who's Evil Now" and "Do the Necronomicon."

Please prepare 32 bars of a Pop/Rock musical theatre piece and prepare one comedic monologue. Please bring sheet music, an accompanist will be provided. Auditionees may be asked to read from the script and/or learn a dance combination. Roles are Non-Paid. All roles are available. Visit www.theatredowntown.net for a complete character breakdown.
