Auditioners Get 'Real' in Davis Musical Theatre Company's Fall Production of
The Velveteen Rabbit
Davis Musical Theatre Company's Young Performers Theatre is pleased to announce auditions for its upcoming fall production of The Velveteen Rabbit. Jan Isaacson will direct and choreograph the show, offering a range of roles available for boys and girls, teens and children. This version features lyrics and music by Barnes Boffey and Paul Pilcher, with additional music by Bob Love.
The humorous and poignant musical adaptation of Margery Williams classic story about love, loss, and self-esteem follows the adventures of the toy Velveteen Rabbit as he earns the love of a young boy and learns the about the joys and pains of becoming real. The musical moves between the worlds of the toy closet, where the Velveteen Rabbit must deal with the other more haughty toys, and the nursery, where he must deal with Top Banana Nana, who rules the nursery with an iron hand.
Auditions will be held on Monday, July 28 and Tuesday, July 29 from 4:30 - 7:00 pm at the Jean Henderson Performing Arts Center, 607 Pena Drive, Davis, CA, with select call-backs on Wednesday, July 30.

by William Nicholson
Directed by Alicia McNeill
Based on a true story,
C.S. Lewis
is a world-renowned writer and professor. Unmarried, he leads a gentleman's life filled by intellectual pursuits, until he meets Joy Gresham, a feisty, abrasive, intelligent New York divorcee whose sharp-edged, no-nonsense attitudes take Lewis by surprise. Bursting unexpectedly into Lewis's world, Joy shocks his associates and awakens him to deep emotions he has written about, but never experienced. Slowly he opens his heart to this woman, and experiences love on a whole new level. But life is made up of delicate balances, and Lewis must confront a difficult truth: that a heart awakened to great love is also opened to great pain.
=====
Oscar Wilde's
The Canterville Ghost
Auditions, Monday, July 7 @ 6:30PM, and Tuesday, July 8 @ 6:00PM
Synopsis:
Adapted from the short story, the Canterville Ghost takes
place in an old English country house, when an American family moves into a British Mansion, much to the annoyance of it's tired ghost. The family -- which
refuses to believe in him -- is in Wilde's way a commentary on the British
nobility of the day -- and on the Americans, too. The tale, like many of Wilde's,
is rich with allusion, but ends as sentimental romance. . .


Characters:
Hiram B. Otis: The American Minister to the Court of St. James.
Lord Canterville: The owner of Canterville Chase, who moved his family out of the home when the haunting by the ancestral ghost became too much.
Mrs. Lucretia Lucy Otis: had been a celebrated New York belle, is now a very handsome, middle-aged woman, with fine eyes, and a superb profile.
Miss Virginia Otis: A kind, quiet, polished, but slightly tomboy-ish young woman of 15
Washington Otis: Virginia's older brother
Samuel and Stanley Otis: Twin sons of Hiram and Lucy. Nick-named Stars & Stripes
Mrs. Umney: The Chase housekeeper, an older woman who, usually, ignores the ghost
Sir Simon De Canterville: The ghost
Cecil, The Duke of Cheshire: A young British gentleman who wants to court Virginia

Auditions at McLaughlin Studio

Don't pass up the incredible opportunity to audition for Mel Brooks hilarious musical, The Producers! Actors age 12 through Adult are welcome at the auditions. Students under the age of 17 will require a signed parent consent form to participate in this main stage production.


The Producers


Book by Mel Brooks and Thomas Meehan
Music and Lyrics by Mel Brooks
Based on the 1968 Film


Two Acts, Book Musical, Rated R
Original Broadway Version


Bialystock and Bloom! Those names should strike terror and hysteria in anyone familiar with Mel Brooks' classic cult comedy film. Now as a big Broadway musical, THE PRODUCERS once again sets the standard for modern, outrageous, in-your-face humor. It is a truly boffo hit, winning a record twelve Tony Awards and wowing capacity crowds night after night.

The plot is simple: a down-on-his-luck Broadway producer and his mild-mannered accountant come up with a scheme to produce the most notorious flop in history thereby bilking their backers (all little old ladies) out of millions of dollars. Only one thing goes awry: the show is a smash hit! The antics of Max Bialystock and Leo Bloom as they maneuver their way fecklessly through finding a show (the gloriously offensive Springtime For Hitler), hiring a director, raising the money and finally going to prison for their misdeeds is a lesson in broad comic construction. At the core of the insanely funny adventure is a poignant emotional journey of two very different men who become friends.


With a truly hysterical book co-written by Mel Brooks and Thomas Meehan (ANNIE) and music and lyrics by Mr. Brooks , THE PRODUCERS skewers Broadway traditions and takes no prisoners as it proudly proclaims itself an equal opportunity offender!


If you have further questions about this or other opportunities please don't hesitate to call or come into the studio.
