Seeking, for possible future replacements in the Broadway company:

Strong Contemporary Singers:

Characters are early 20s – mid 40s, all races, ethnic backgrounds and sizes. Some may understudy principals. All should have a great rock sound, and be able to move well.

Strong Dancers (M/F):

Characters are early 20s, all races, ethnic backgrounds and sizes. Seeking dancers with a contemporary, hip look. Must sing well. Some featured male ensemble positions have dance specialties for which Russian split jumps and acrobatics are a plus.
