Marblehead Little Theatre announces Non-Equity Adult Auditions for SOMETHING ROTTEN!
Marblehead Little Theatre (MLT) is thrilled to announce non- Equity auditions for SOMETHING ROTTEN! Written by Karey Kirkpatrick and John O'Farrell, with music and lyrics by Wayne Kirkpatrick and Karey Kirkpatrick, this hilarious musical about Shakespeare’s contemporaries is sure to have you laughing and dancing in your seat.
Set in the 1590s, brothers Nick and Nigel Bottom are desperate to write a hit play but are stuck in the shadow of that Renaissance rock star known as "The Bard." When a local soothsayer foretells that the future of theater involves singing, dancing and acting at the same time, Nick and Nigel set out to write the world’s very first musical. But amidst the scandalous excitement of opening night, the Bottom Brothers realize that reaching the top means being true to thine own self, and all that jazz. For more information, please visit:
