"Smokey Joe's Cafe" Words and Music by Jerry Lieber and Mike Stoller Directed and Choreographed by Stephen Hatcher; Musical Direction by Eric Bellah

AUDTIONS: October 19 and 20 at 8:00pm Callbacks: October 21 at 8:00pm

The audition will be held at: Magic Circle's Tower Theater: 421 Vernon Street, Roseville CA 95678

Please be prepared with 16 bars of a song from a Broadway show (but not from the show you are auditioning for), and come dressed for movement.

Leiber and Stoller, as much as anyone, virtually invented rock 'n' roll, and now their songs provide the basis for an electrifying entertainment that illuminates a golden age of American culture. In an idealized '50's setting, the classic themes of love won, lost and imagined blend with hilarious set-pieces and slice-of-life emotions. Featuring nearly 40 of the greatest songs ever recorded, Smokey Joe's Cafe isn't just great pop music - it's compelling musical theatre.
The songs include "Neighborhood," "Young Blood," "Falling," "Ruby Baby," "Dance With Me," "Keep On Rollin'," "Searchin'," "Kansas City," "Trouble," "Love Me," "Don't," "Fools Fall In Love," "Poison Ivy," "Don Juan," "Shoppin' For Clothes," "I Keep Forgettin'," "On Broadway," "D.W. Washburn," "Saved, Baby," "That Is Rock & Roll," "Yakety Yak," "Charlie Brown," "Stay A While," "Pearl's A Singer," "Teach Me How To Shimmy," "You're The Boss," "Smokey Joe's Cafe," "Loving You," "Treat Me Nice," "Hound Dog," "Little Egypt," "I'm A Woman," "There Goes My Baby," "Love Potion #9," "Some Cats Know," "Jailhouse Rock," "Spanish Harlem," "I (Who Have Nothing)," "Stand By Me."
The orginal Broadway production opened in 1995 and ran for 2036 performances.
