The Diamond Head Theatre in Honolulu will hold auditions for its upcoming production of Altar Boyz. Directed by Tammy Colucci, the auditions will be held on Friday, April 8 at 7:00 pm, Saturday, April 9 and Sunday, April 10 at 2:00 pm. Altar Boyz will play from Friday, May 20 to Sunday, June 5.

The musical is presented in real time as the final concert of the national "Raise the Praise" tour staged by the five-member Christian boy band, the Altar Boyz: Matthew, Mark, Luke, Juan and Abraham (the Jewish one!). The small town boys are trying to save the world one screaming fan at a time relying on the "Soul Sensor DX-12," which has a display that they explain shows the number of burdened souls in the theatre. Their goal is to reduce the number on the machine to zero by the end of the concert.

The music and choreography is very pop boy band. All roles must have very strong singing/harmony ability, dance ability and very strong comedic timing.

Please prepare a pop song to show off vocal ability and range. Accompanist will be provided. Bring sheet music. Please prepare a one-minute comedic monologue. A short dance combination will be taught, so please be prepared to move.
