Experienced singers and dancers are certainly wanted - but roles are available for ALL skill levels and ages (7+)!

WHAT TO KNOW:
- Some singing or dancing will be required for most cast members, but no prior experience is necessary. Most major speaking roles will NOT require solo singing; the Ensemble, acting as narrators, will carry most of this. Music is Traditional/Folk, not musical theater.
- No monologues will be required. Sides will be provided at auditions. No reservations are needed - arrive anytime within the audition window. Please prepare a 16-bar cut (or 30-60 seconds) from a song of your choice. Selection should showcase your voice and personality. Please bring sheet music, an accompaniment track, or be prepared to sing a Capella.
