Landmark to hold auditions
THOMASTON — Landmark Community Theatre is holding auditions for its first production of the 2019 season, “The Great American Trailer Park Musical,” Sunday and Monday, Nov. 11-12, at the Arts Center Theatre at the Thomaston Opera House. Auditions will be on a first-come, first-served basis.
Ed Bassett will direct the show, with music direction by Sean Lewis. The show dates are Feb. 2-3, 8-10, 15-17 for a total of 8 performances. Rehearsals will begin Nov. 25 and continue to be held three times a week, 6-9 p.m.
Rehearsal days are tentatively scheduled for Sunday, Monday, and Wednesday evenings. In case of inclement weather and cancelled rehearsals, they will be rescheduled.
Auditioners must bring sheet music with them and be prepared to sing 32 bars (about a minute) of a fully memorized musical theater song showcasing the style and vocal range of the character for which they are auditioning.
Songs from the show are allowed. Additional vocalizing may also be a part of the audition to determine vocal range and harmonizing skills. An accompanist will be provided; no recorded accompaniment is permitted. Auditioners will be asked to read following their vocal audition. Dance auditions will not be held.
