Open Casting Call for Pennington Player's IN THE HEIGHTS

By:

Open call auditions for The Pennington Players' October show, In The Heights, will take place at The Kelsey Theatre at Mercer County Community College on Saturday, July 30th from 9am to 3pm, and on Sunday, August 7th from 2pm to 6pm.

All roles are open and will remain so until the end of auditions. This is a non-equity, non-paying production.

Callbacks will be held Monday, August 8th. Performances will run from October 14th to October 23rd at The Kelsey Theatre in West Windsor, New Jersey.

This groundbreaking musical, written by Lin-Manuel Miranda (the mastermind behind the hit Broadway show Hamilton), is about life in Washington Heights. "This centers around a tight-knit community where the coffee from the corner bodega is light and sweet, the windows are always open, and the breeze carries the rhythm of three generations of music," stated Kyrus Keenan Westcott, the musical's director. "Much like Hamilton, this musical is an audience phenomenon that acclaimed critical success with its universal themes on family, community, change, and self-discovery."

More information, such as character descriptions and audition instructions, can be found at www.ithpennington.weebly.com Further questions may be directed toward Kyrus Keenan Westcott at ithpennington@gmail.com.

The Pennington Players have been entertaining New Jersey and Pennsylvania audiences since 1951. This non-profit community theatre organization has strived to produce high quality musicals, dramas, and comedies. More information is available at www.penningtonplayers.com.
