Auditions for MCP's
Schoolhouse Rock Live!
to Be Held in May
Director Laureen Catlin, Producer Mary Stan Fizer, and Musical Director Lara Gonzalez are excited to announce auditions for MCP's Fall show, Schoolhouse Rock Live!
Tom, a nerve-wracked school teacher is nervous about his first day of teaching. He tries to relax by watching TV, when various characters emerge from the set and show him how to win his students over with imagination and music. Full of familiar tunes such as Just a Bill, Lolly, Lolly, Lolly and Conjunction Junction this show promises to transport you back to a simpler time.
If you are interested in being a part of the show, come sing us a song. Come as a family! Come with your partner! Come as an individual! Each song is being treated as a mini show in itself with its own "family." Depending on the number cast, you could be a part of two or more songs with a flexible rehearsal schedule. It's a perfect show for those whose schedules make rehearsals for book musicals a challenge.
Auditions will be
Saturday, May 18th from 2pm to 6pm or
Sunday, May 19th from 2pm to 4pm
at 5140 Minuteman Court, Mason
(Varied location is to accommodate a rental in the Playhouse)
Each auditioner age 14 and up should prepare 16-32 bars of a song of your choosing. Musical theatre songs encouraged! Please bring sheet music or a music track to sing along with. Both an accompanist and blue tooth speakers will be provided.
Those under the age of 14 may prepare a song, or be asked to sing a tune of the accompanist's choosing ("Twinkle, Twinkle" or "Happy Birthday", for instance.)
Those auditioning should fill out an audition form online or at the audition. The online form is accessible here.
If you would like to be a part
of the show and cannot attend auditions, or have any questions or
concerns, please contact Director Laureen Catlin. You can e-mail her here.
Schoolhouse Rock Live! will be performed September 6, 7, 12, 13 & 14 at 7:30pm and September 8 at 2pm at the Mason Community Playhouse.
Be a part of this enjoyable show!
Elementary, my dear! - Doyle
