AUDITION NOTICEGrosse Pointe Theatre to hold auditions for The Sound of Music, April 9-10. Pre-Audition Music and Dance Workshop for Youth, April 6 Auditions for the beloved musical The Sound of Music will take place at Grosse Pointe Theatre on Saturday, April 9, with callbacks on Sunday, April 10, including specific times for youth and adult roles. In addition, there will be a pre-audition workshop for youth the evening of Wednesday, April 6 so they can learn the music cuts and dance routines needed at auditions. The youth workshop is not mandatory but strongly encouraged for youth wishing to audition for any of the youth roles. The show will be performed eight times June 24 through July 3.
"Grosse Pointe Theatre is thrilled to bring this beautiful show to audiences," said Tim Higgins, director and choreographer. "Many are familiar with the beautiful music by Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II, including 'Climb Ev'ry Mountain,' 'Do-Re-Mi,' 'Edelweiss,' and 'The Sound of Music,' just to name a few; and the story of the von Trapp family who had to flee their homeland of Austria when a dictator took power in 1938. We hope this inspirational love story of family and homeland will be a beacon of light in these challenging times. All are welcome to audition for the more than 30 roles available, or volunteer and support Grosse Pointe Theatres production of The Sound of Music."
Registration forms, character descriptions, script readings, music cuts and information about performance dates and times, are available at www.gpt.org/auditions.
