Glimmer Globe Theatre is jumping with joy to announce open
AUDITIONS: on Sun. May 21 for our first ever musical, the Tony-nominated
A Year With Frog and Toad! This fantastically fun musical romp is based on the beloved children’s books by Arnold Lobel, featuring the earnest and loyal Frog, stubborn but lovable Toad, and an ensemble cast of three talented actors, each of whom will be playing at least 5 different forest creatures. All actors will be PAID a stipend from $600-$1000 Depending on the size of the role!
Following a year in the life of a group of animal friends and their adventures between periods of hibernation, this vibrant, funny, and moving show is exuberant fun for audiences of all ages. With vaudevillian energy, an infectious score, and heaps of heart, “Frog and Toad” broke new ground as the first “Family” show to have a run on Broadway, with its inaugural production garnering three Tony nominations, including Best New Musical, Best Book of a Musical, and Best Original Score.
The production will be directed by Michael Tamburrino, with music direction by Tim Iversen. The performances will all be matinees, and will take place in our lakeside Lucy B. Hamilton Amphitheater on Saturdays and Sundays from September 9-24.
