BEEHIVE is a nostalgic trip down memory lane recalling the magical pop tunes of the 1960s and early 70s. A group of female friends take us back in history to your favorite girl groups and some of the most influential female vocalists of that time. Aretha, Annette Funicello, Tina Turner, Janis Joplin, Lulu, Leslie Gore and more take the stage and show us how music changed with the times and events of the era. A high energy jukebox musical,BEEHIVE is a delight for the whole family.
Williams Street Rep is looking to cast six to eight strong pop/rock/R&B female vocalists who move extremely well. Ability to handle tight harmonies is a must. We are looking to cast women who can plausibly imitate such female icons as Diana Ross, Aretha Franklin, Janis Joplin, Annette Funicello, Leslie Gore, Lulu, Dusty Springfield, Patti LaBelle, Tina Turner, Brenda Lee, Petula Clark, Connie Francis, and Janis Ian.
