Goodspeed Musicals Seeks 2 Local Girls For Roles In EMMET OTTER, Auditions Held 9/5
Calling all girls! Here's your chance to join a professional acting company. Goodspeed Musicals is holding auditions for local Non-Equity child actors (GIRLS between ages 12-14) for its upcoming production of Jim Henson's Emmet Otter. Auditions will be held on Saturday, September 5th, from 10:00 am to 1:00 pm at Goodspeed's Norma Terris Theatre in Chester, Conn.
Auditions are for the role and understudy of Jane - Jane is a typical, modern 14 year old, jaded and above it all, who has lost the meaning of Christmas but eventually finds it again. Actresses need to have a contemporary pop sound and move well.
All auditions are by appointment only. Appointments may be made starting immediately. Please call Company Management at (860) 873-8664, ext. 387, Tuesday through Sunday, 11 am - 5 pm.
Interested performers should bring a resume, photo and sheet music and be prepared to sing two short numbers: an up-tempo song and a ballad. Music must be legible and in the proper key (No lead sheets please). An accompanist will be provided. You will also be asked to read a scene that will be provided.
Candidates must be available for rehearsals November 10 - December 4, 2009, performances at the Goodspeed Opera House December 5, 2009 - January 3, 2010. Rehearsals and performances occur in East Haddam, Conn. Candidates must be Non-Equity for the rehearsal and performance period.
Performers of all ethnicities are strongly encouraged to audition.
Dedicated to the preservation and advancement of musical theatre, Goodspeed Musicals produces three musicals each season at the Goodspeed Opera House in East Haddam, Conn., and additional productions at The Norma Terris Theatre in Chester, Conn., which was opened in 1984 for the development of new musicals. The only regional theatre to receive two Tony Awards (for outstanding achievement), Goodspeed also maintains The Scherer Library of Musical Theatre and The Max Showalter Center for Education in the Musical Theater. Goodspeed gratefully acknowledges the support of Blum Shapiro, Hoffman Audi, and the Connecticut Commission on Culture and Tourism.
