Description:

The company is holding auditions for "Alice By Heart" a musical, and looking for performers, please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE CONSIDERED. About the project: It is 1941, and a young woman named Alice Spencer uses the Lewis Carroll stories to escape the horrors of the London Blitz. During one curiously terrible evening, her best friend Alfred is diagnosed with incurable tuberculosis and a Red Cross nurse rips apart her books. This pushes Alice over the edge, and since she has learned the stories by heart, retreats into her fantasy world, dragging the dying Alfred with her. Additional info: Please prepare 32 bars of a ballad from another musical. Contemporary belt or mix is preferred. There will be a cold read from the script. Music rehearsals will start in Feb., with blocking starting in March. The musical will open May 10-26. British accents are a MUST! Please apply if interested.
