Dancers and Singers Needed for "A Chorus Line" Show
The company is holding auditions for "A CHORUS LINE" Show and looking for performers, please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE CONSIDERED. About the project: Set in 1975, A Chorus Line examines one day in the lives of seventeen dancers, all vying for a spot in the “chorus line” of a Broadway musical. The show opens during an audition for an upcoming Broadway production. The formidable director Zach and his assistant choreographer Larry put the 24 dancers through their paces. Every dancer is desperate for work. After a round of cuts, 17 dancers remain. Zach tells them he is looking for a strong 8-member dancing chorus of four boys and four girls. Wanting to learn more about them, he asks the dancers to introduce themselves. Reluctantly, the dancers reveal their pasts. The stories generally progress chronologically from early life experiences through adulthood to the end of a career. Additional info: Show dates: February 13 - 23, 2025 Please prepare 32 Bars of a song from the show, that shows off your range. An accompanist will be provided. A dance combination will be taught. Please be prepared for jazz, ballet, tap. Please bring a hard copy of your headshot and resume. While this is a dance heavy show, vocals and acting are equally important. Please apply if interested.
