Seeking Cast For "Hadestown" & "Broadway Today" Shows
Auditions for "Hadestown" & "Broadway Today" shows. Casting actors. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE CONSIDERED. See the details below. About the project: "Hadestown": This intriguing and beautiful folk opera delivers a deeply resonant and defiantly hopeful theatrical experience. Following two intertwining love stories – that of young dreamers Orpheus and Eurydice, and that of immortal King Hades and lady Persephone – Hadestown invites audiences on a hell-raising journey to the underworld and back. Inspired by traditions of classic American folk music and vintage New Orleans jazz, Mitchell’s beguiling sung-through musical pits industry against nature, doubt against faith, and fear against love. "Broadway Today": A high-octane musical revue featuring the newest and best songs in musical theatre. Directors encourage duet and trio auditions as well as solos. This show will be written for the actors they cast, and will also serve as a fundraising event for the upcoming season! Additional info: "Hadestown": Video auditions only, due August 8th by 10PM. Callbacks in-person AUGUST 9th 4pm-8pm. Rehearsals begin September 5th (rehearsals primarily on Monday, Wednesday, and Sundays). Performs October 18-20th.
