Seeking two women, two men (Sop, Alto, Tenor and Baritone) who are excellent sight-readers and harmony singers.
Man #1: CAST
Man #2: Legit Lyric Baritone up to a G. A young Sinatra-type. This actor should have all American boy good looks and be a physical contrast to the actor playing Man #1. Must be a capable part singer.
Woman #1: Mezzo-Soprano with a strong belt. An Ava Gardner-type who is dark, sensual, exotic with striking good looks. She is a classy dame who drips with style, sophistication, and class. This actress sings through a wide range vocally and must also be a capable part singer.
Woman #2: Mezzo-Soprano with some Soprano parts. A Blonde Bombshell-type or with a smile that lights up the room. She should be able to project an energetic sexuality to the audience. Vocally this character needs to have that same smooth liquid big band singer sound of the 40's. A strong dancer with tap skills would be a big plus.
