Description:

The company is holding auditions for "A Little Night Music" Show and looking for performers, please see the details below. About the project: Set in 1900 Sweden, A Little Night Music explores the tangled web of affairs centered around actress, Desirée Armfeldt, and the men who love her: a lawyer by the name of Fredrik Egerman and the Count Carl-Magnus Malcom. When the traveling actress performs in Fredrik’s town, the estranged lovers’ passion rekindles. This strikes a flurry of jealousy and suspicion between Desirée; Fredrik; Fredrick’s wife, Anne; Desirée’s current lover, the Count; and the Count’s wife, Charlotte. Both men – as well as their jealous wives – agree to join Desirée and her family for a weekend in the country at Desirée’s mother’s estate. With everyone in one place, infinite possibilities of new romances and second chances bring endless surprises. Additional info: Callbacks, if necessary, will be held on February 25th An accompanist will be provided for your singing audition: please bring sheet music for your prepared 32 bars from a stylistically similar show. There will also be a short movement educational opportunity (don’t panic), and you may or may not be asked to read a short passage from the script. Please note that this show contains adult content and themes that are sometimes sexual in nature. This title is rated PG-13.
