Best of Broadway Auditions for 2017 Performances

2016bobposterDo you love to sing and dance? Come be a part of Lassen County’s largest annual theatrical production! The 2017 Susanville Best of Broadway concert series is gearing up for their March performances with two days of auditions scheduled for October 15th and 22nd from 10:00a.m. to 2:00p.m.

Best of Broadway is looking for talented actors and actresses, soloists, chorus singers, costume designers, dancers, seamstresses and makeup artists.

For the more technically inclined the production offers jobs in lighting and sound design, scenery construction and rigging crews.

This year’s musical lineup includes songs from Little Mermaid, 7 Brides for 7 Brothers, Little Shop of Horrors, Rent and more.

You must pre-register for the auditions by heading over to susanvillebestofbroadway.org and filling out the online form.

Auditions will be held at House of Dance at 718 Main Street.  For more information call 260-6191 or visit www.susanvillebestofbroadway.org.

According to the Best of Broadway folks there are some things you need to know before you audition:

  • It takes about an hour to an hour and a half to complete the audition process.
  • Come to auditions prepared to sing one verse and chorus of the song of your choosing.  Our choreographer will teach a short age appropriate dance routine for the dance portion of your audition.
  • If there is a solo part that you want to try out for, come to your regular audition ready to perform that song.  There are links on the home page to where you can hear the version of the song we will be performing.  Children under the age of 8 will not be considered for solo parts because of the fragile nature of the microphones they must wear during performances.
  • All prospective cast members MUST audition for song and dance.  We don’t expect you to be an accomplished dancer but we have to know you’re willing to try as every performer in the show does some type of choreographed movement.
  • Auditions are open to anyone age 5 and up.  Children must be age five at the time of auditions.
  • Susanville Best of Broadway will perform 6 shows March 4 & 5 and 11 & 12, 2016
  • Rehearsals begin January 4, 2016.  All cast members will rehearse at least one night of the week and part of Saturday.  Saturday rehearsals are mandatory and run no later than 6pm.  Dress rehearsals are also mandatory.
  • Cast members are asked to pay a $20 production fee with a family maximum of $50
  • While Best of Broadway maintains an extensive costume collection available for loan whenever possible, it is likely that cast members will spend up to $70 purchasing their own costumes, shoes or accessories.
  • In the interest of ensuring the safety of your children, parents/guardians will be required to sign kids under the age of 12 in and out of rehearsals.
