Casting Performers for “Shout, the Mod Musical”
Auditions for “Shout, the Mod Musical”. Seeking cast. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE CONSIDERED. Please see the information provided below. About the project: Shout, the Mod Musical, follows five groovy gals as they come of age during those glorious days that made England swing. Traveling in time from 1960 to 1970, SHOUT! chronicles the dawning liberation of women, from the rise of Dusty Springfield, Petula Clark, and Cilla Black as independent women with major careers, to their American counterparts, redefining themselves in the face of changing attitudes about gender. With a shimmy and shake, the songs are tied together by hilarious sound bites from the period – from '60s advertisements to letters answered by an advice columnist who thinks that every problem can be solved with a "fetching new hairstyle and a new shade of lipstick.” Rate: $500.00 – $650.00 per week. The Theatre offers professional compensation, round-trip transportation, and excellent accommodations for up to eight visiting artists per production.

5 roles
The "mother" of the group is domestic, maternal, wise, soulful, and mature, gradually asserting her newfound independence. She embodies the traditional domestic and maternal expectations placed on women in the early 60s. Solos: I Only Want To Be With You, Wishin’ & Hopin’, You Don’t Have To Say You Love Me, Don’t Give Up, These Boots Are Made For Walkin’.(Vocal range: F3 to B5 - Mezzo Belt)
The ‘baby’ of the group is a bundle of youthful contradictions—naive, enthusiastic, quirky, a hopeless romantic, and heavily insecure about her appearance. She is a dynamic member of the quintet, completing the colorful 1960s ensemble. (Vocal range: F3 to G5 - Character Soprano Belt)
The "Good-Time Girl” is a zany, uninhibited, and slightly disheveled character, known for her humor and single status. She provides comic relief within the group, embodying a lively, middle-class, carefree spirit. (Vocal range: F3 to F5 - Mezzo Belt)
The upper-class, blue-blooded fashion model. She is poised, sophisticated, cool, hyper-vain, and somewhat unapproachable. Aspiring to be a glamorous Bond girl and cover model, she embodies elegance and aloofness. Solos: Don’t Sleep in the Subway, Diamonds Are Forever, You’re My World/ All I See Is You. (Vocal range: F3 to F5 - Mezzo Belt)
The American girl, often from Cincinnati, is loud and uninhibited, guided by her raw emotions. She has a sunny, rock-diva exterior that conceals a deep vulnerability. Despite her bold front and powerful rock belt, she harbors a surprising sensitivity and a strong obsession with Paul McCartney. Solos: Son of a Preacher Man, I Just Don’t Know What to Do with Myself; These Boots Are Made for Walkin', Shout, and Downtown. (Vocal range: F3 to E5 - Rock Belt)
