Volunteers of all ages and sizes are needed to be cast members and strike a pose in the world's most famous presentation of tableaux vivants.
The Pageant of the Masters in Laguna Beach, California, is hosting its annual Open Casting Call in search of volunteers for next summer's show, À La Mode: The Art of Fashion this weekend, January 5th to 7th, 2024.
Volunteers of all ages and sizes are needed to be cast members and strike a pose in the world's most famous presentation of tableaux vivants. No prior theater experience necessary; individuals ages 5 and up are welcome. The only requirement is the ability to stand still and have fun. In addition to onstage roles, volunteers are needed for many crucial roles backstage including wardrobe, makeup, headdress, as well as cast area coordinators and refreshment servers.
Adding to the excitement of this year's casting call, everyone that signs up to volunteer during the event will be entered into a special drawing for two tickets to Disneyland Park. To learn more, visit www.foapom.com/volunteer.
