Singing Audition for "Miracle on 34th Street" Show in DC

Washington, DC, United States
ID: 265299Exp: 7/15/2024
Description:

Auditions are being held for the play "Miracle on 34th Street" Seeking actors. Please review the breakdown below. ONLY VA, MD & LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: A holiday classic from the writer of the musical theatre classic, The Music Man!, and based on the movie of the same name, Miracle on 34th Street features a book and score by none other than Meredith Willson. "Single mother, Doris Walker, doesn’t want her six-year-old Susan’s head filled with romantic notions. Their neighbor, Fred Gailey, tries to woo Doris by charming Susan and taking her to see Santa Claus at Macy’s, where Doris works. Doris is not impressed, but when it turns out that Macy’s Santa may, in fact, be the real Kris Kringle, a wave of love spreads across New York City that melts even the most cynical hearts." Filled with humor, spectacle, and such beloved songs as “Pinecones and Hollyberries,” “It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas” and “My State, My Kansas,” this joyous, heartwarming musical is pure family entertainment, wholesome without being cloying. A star vehicle for a female actress that features great roles for children, the show is a cast- and crowd-pleaser.
