The company is holding auditions for "Dogfight" Show and looking for performers, please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE CONSIDERED. About the project: The hauntingly beautiful musical, Dogfight, by Pasek and Paul (Dear Evan Hansen) and Peter Duchan, was praised by countless critics and nominated for numerous awards, winning the Lucille Lortel Award for Best Musical. Based on the 1991 Warner Brothers film, Dogfight takes audiences on a romantic and heartbreaking theatrical journey. It's November 21, 1963. On the eve of their deployment to a small but growing conflict in Southeast Asia, three young Marines set out for one final boys' night of debauchery, partying and maybe a little trouble. But, when Corporal Eddie Birdlace meets Rose, an awkward and idealistic waitress whom he enlists to win a cruel bet with his fellow recruits, she rewrites the rules of the game and teaches him the power of love and compassion. Additional info: Performance Dates: October 17-27 Rehearsal Dates: Dogfight will rehearse three days a week: Sundays, plus two weekday nights based on the availability of ideal casting. Regular scheduled rehearsals will begin in August. Please see the attachment for more details. If interested, please apply.
