The Cape Playhouse has a number of exciting offerings this summer, including a movie benefit, a chance to be a part of HAIRPSRAY, and auditions for the Tony Winning show GREY GARDENS.
On June 27 at 7 pm, FOREVER PLAID, one of Off-Broadway's most popular and critically acclaimed musicals of all time (and your favorite
Cape Playhouse show from last season) will return for one night only - this time to the big screen at the Cape Cinema.
This hilarious and irresistible film featuring the original off-Broadway cast takes audiences on a "trip to Fiftiesville" with our favorite 50s boy-band - Sparky, Jinx, Smudge and Frankie. This exclusive event movie also includes bonus footage of "The Plaids" performing numbers never before sung in the show, with special guests
Carol Channing and
Fred Willard.
Stuart Ross, its creator and director, will make a special in-person appearance introducing the film and leading a Q & A at its conclusion, followed by a catered reception. A portion of the $20 admission benefits the
Cape Playhouse ~ CCCArts.
You can also enter a drawing and win a chance to be right in the middle of the action in HAIRSPRAY. Your winning ticket enables you - or a friend or family member -to appear on stage in a performance of the
Cape Playhouse musical, HAIRSPRAY.
Chances are only $5 each, or 5 for $20. Tickets are fully transferable - you may give your winning ticket to a friend or other aspiring star who is age 18 or older. There will be 16 winners - a different winner for each of the 16 performance of Hairspray. All proceeds directly benefit the
Cape Playhouse ~ CCCArts. Purchase your chances at the Box Office today.
The
Cape Playhouse also announces auditions for local young ladies, age 10-14, for two roles in the upcoming professional musical production of GREY GARDENS, the Tony Award winning, musical version of the documentary "Grey Gardens" that tells the story of Edie Beale and her mother, cousins of Jackie Kennedy Onassis.
Auditions will be for the roles of the young Jackie Bouvier (later to become Jackie Kennedy), and her sister, Lee (Bouvier) Radziwill. The roles are two young ladies brought up at the height of society in the 1930's... well bred, tasteful, and knowing how to behave in any given social situation. They should be bright and confident in their demeanor.
Auditions will be held Saturday morning, June 26th. Registration begins at 10:00am in the
Cape Playhouse lobby. Each actress may be accompanied by up to two guardians.
Please prepare a STANDARD Broadway song (Rodgers & Hammerstein, Gershwin, etc.). Bring your own sheet music. An accompanist will be provided.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If cast in this production, the actresses must be available for ALL rehearsals and ALL performances at the
Cape Playhouse.
Rehearsals: August 5 through August 8.
Performances: August 9 through August 21 Shows: Monday-Saturday evenings at 8pm, matinees on Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday (8 shows per week).
