HAIR - Mad Cow Theatre Non Equity Auditions

MAD COW THEATRE is holding auditions for its upcoming production of Hair: The American Tribal Love-Rock Musical with lyrics by James Rado & Gerome Ragni and music by Galt MacDermot. Production dates are June 6, 2014, through July 6, 2014, with a possible extension. Tim Williams is director, with Robin Jensen as musical director.

Mad Cow Theatre is seeking a multicultural cast of unique and charismatic singer/actor/dancers to play various roles, along with members of the Tribe. All performers must be sensational rock/pop vocalists and strong, creative actors. Auditioners should prepare 32 bars of an up-tempo pop or rock song from the 1960s/1970s, a rock musical theatre piece or a selection from Hair. An accompanist will be provided. Bring sheet music in your key as well as a picture and resume. Please no CDs. See our
website for a character list.

This show was created for, and we are seeking, a multicultural company. In some instances roles were created for actors of a specific ethnicity. In these cases it is noted in the character description. Please note that, as with the original production, some nudity will be a part of these performances. However, nudity is voluntary and is not a requirement for all members. There is no nudity required at the audition.
