Warner Stage sets auditions for ‘Dogfight’

TORRINGTON, — The Warner Stage Company will hold auditions for a Nancy Marine Studio Theatre musical production of “Dogfight,” Jan. 67 by appointment. The production is directed by Katherine Ray with music director Dan Ringuette and choreographerSharon W. Houk. It will be presented at the Warner's Nancy Marine Studio Theatre beginning March 28 for five shows.

All roles are open to audition. The company is seeking a cast of 68 women and 810 men for this production.

Those auditioning will be asked to sing up to one minute of a fully memorized show tune, not from “Dogfight.” The song should showcase the style and vocal range of the character for which you are auditioning. Auditioners should mark their selection with a highlighter. An accompanist will be provided. A cappella singing or recorded accompaniments will not be allowed. Additional vocalizing may also be a part of the audition to determine vocal range and harmonizing skills. Some auditioners may be asked to read from the script.

Auditioners without an appointment will be seen as time allows. Video auditions are accepted for those unable to attend on the scheduled dates. Audition appointment spaces are limited and filled on a firstcome, first served basis. Callbacks, if needed, will be held at 7 p.m. on Jan. 9.

Rehearsals will be held three nights per week on Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday evenings, 710 p.m., starting Jan. 12. Tech week rehearsals will be Sunday through Thursday, March 2226, 2020. Hold March 27 aside in case an additional rehearsal is needed. Pickup rehearsal is April 2.

Those who are unable to make the mandatory tech week rehearsals and/or midweek pickup rehearsal, we will be unable to cast you in this production. The Warner Stage Company is a regional community theatre company and does not offer compensation or housing for performers.
