Description:

The company is holding auditions for "Young Frankenstein" show and looking for performers, please see the details below. About the project: From the creators of the record-breaking Broadway sensation, The Producers, comes this monster new musical comedy. The comedy genius, Mel Brooks, adapts his legendarily funny film into a brilliant stage creation – Young Frankenstein! Grandson of the infamous Victor Frankenstein, Frederick Frankenstein (pronounced “Fronk-en-steen”) inherits his family’s estate in Transylvania. With the help of a hunchbacked sidekick, Igor (pronounced “Eye-gore”), and a leggy lab assistant, Inga (pronounced normally), Frederick finds himself in the mad scientist shoes of his ancestors. “It’s alive!” he exclaims as he brings to life a creature to rival his grandfather’s. Eventually, of course, the monster escapes and hilarity continuously abounds. Additional info: The audition will consist of a prepared song (16-32 bars) and cold readings from the script. There will be some dancing, so dress appropriately for movement if you are auditioning for a dancing role. This includes bringing appropriate footwear. WHAT TO BRING: A headshot and resume if you have them. 16-32 bar cut of a song that demonstrates your vocal abilities. Please bring an accompaniment on a phone/CD. A complete list of any conflicts you have during the rehearsal schedule. There can be no conflicts during tech week or performances.
