As The Way Off Broadway Dinner Theatre continues its 2025 Season, the theatre is preparing to begin production on its summer production of Rodgers + Hammerstein’s Cinderella – The Broadway Musical.  Auditions for the show will be held on Monday, April 14th beginning at 7:00 p.m. at the theatre.

Rodgers + Hammerstein's Cinderella - The Broadway Musical is the 2013 Broadway adaptation of the classic musical that tells the timeless story of a kind and mistreated young woman who, with the help of her Fairy Godmother, is able to attend the royal ball where she captivates the heart of the Prince, while opening his eyes to injustices throughout his kingdom. With a revised book by Douglas Carter Beane, this is a fresh-telling of a favorite tale.  

Those interested in auditioning should bring a headshot and resume, as well as 16 bars of prepared musical, and be ready to sing, read from the script, and dance.  All roles are open and non-union-paying.  Those auditioning should be at least 16 years old.  No appointments are necessary and an accompanist will be provided.  A Character Breakdown can be found on the theatre’s Auditions Page at wayoffbroadway.com.
