AUDITION DATE CHANGE FOR BACKWARDS BROADWAY!
Due to new conflicts on Monday, May 13, the second date for auditions for Backwards Broadway has been moved (back to) Tuesday, May 14 at 6 p.m. More details below:
DLO Arts in the Park Entertainment Auditions
DLO performs at Arts in the Park (Lincoln Park) on
Sunday, June 23 at 5:00 p.m.
The theme for this year’s entertainment is “Backwards Broadway”. We are inviting performers to audition musical theatre songs they might otherwise never have an opportunity to sing because they aren’t the right gender, ethnicity, body type, age, etc. Acts will be coordinated and directed by Jeanne Dunn, and Dave Schroeder will bring his talent to the piano. We will be casting enough acts to fill approximately 35-40 minutes. (Our youth musical cast gets 10 minutes, and we need another few minutes for introductions and stuff.)
AUDITIONS: Saturday, May 11, 1:30-3:30 p.m.
Tuesday, May 14, 6:00-8:00 p.m.
Center Stage Rehearsal Hall at Village Mall
WHAT: We are looking for a variety of acts: solos, duets, small groups. Don’t be shy about getting a group of your guy friends together to sing, “I Feel Pretty”, or your gal pals to sing “Nothin’ Like a Dame”. (Just suggestions! There are many songs of that ilk from which to choose!) People love to laugh! Would also to see a family act featuring the songs “I Won’t Grow Up” (sung by the grown-ups) and “What’s the Matter With Kids” (sung by the kids). (Again, a suggestion.)
PREPARE: The song you would like to sing if cast. You do not have to have the song completely memorized for the audition, but performance potential should be there. We are casting you AND the song you bring to auditions, so choose well!
PROVIDE: Sheet music for our terrific pianist.
IF CAST: You will be responsible for memorizing your song and attending scheduled rehearsal times to bring it to performance level.
REHEARSALS: We will have rehearsals on Monday evenings, and you would be scheduled for a specific 15-minute slot, so we don’t have people doing a lot of waiting around. A detailed rehearsal schedule will be provided.
QUESTIONS?: Contact Jeanne Dunn via Facebook (private message) at Jeanne Simpson Dunn. (NOTE: Jeanne will be unavailable April 12-29, though might be able to check in periodically. You may not receive an immediate response during that time.)
We hope many of you will take advantage of this opportunity, and we promise that it will be a lot of fun!
