For Detailed information about Gypsy visit SalineAreaPlayers.com The Story: Gypsy is the story of Mama Rose and her two daughters, the talented June and the less-gifted Louise. Rose, the iron-willed stage mother pushes her children toward stardom on the vaudeville stage and lets nothing stand in their way.

Throughout their tours across the country, success is no closer than when they started. As the years go by, June elopes with the star male dancer, Tulsa. Later, as the dream of success crumbles further, Herbie and the rest of the crew leave Rose so that Louise is all that is left to fulfill Rose's dreams of fame.

We're looking for wide ranging character voices, accents, creepy Allister Cooke type storytellers, good screamers etc. and a short, optional singing audition. This is NOT a musical, though there will be a couple songs. Singing is only a part of this show. If you're not ok with singing, we're ok with that. The show: SCREAM THEATRE is an evening of spooky-ooky, Halloweenie storytelling performed in an old fashioned radio show format, complete with sound effects, station identification tag and spooky songs.
In the little village of Anatevka, Tevye, a poor dairyman, tries to instill in his five daughters the traditions of his tight-knit Jewish community in the face of changing social mores and the growing anti-Semitism of Czarist Russia. Its charm, humor, warmth, honesty and universal themes cut across barriers of race, class, nationality and religion, touching audiences throughout the world. A epic piece of theatre, Fiddler... Junior covers the full range of human emotions, presenting young performers with a unique acting challenge - especially the mature young man starring as Tevye, among the most memorable and rewarding roles in musical theatre. Many roles for boys and girls who are in grades 3 through 8. More information can be found at our website http://chelseaareaplayers.org

For more information about MUSKET please visit our website: http://www.umich.edu/~uac/musket PLOT SUMMARY: Hollywood, 1927: the silent-film romantic team of Don Lockwood and Lina Lamont is the Toast of Tinseltown. While Lockwood and Lamont personify smoldering passions on screen, in real life the down-to-earth Lockwood can't stand the egotistical, brainless Lina. He prefers the company of aspiring actress Kathy Selden, whom he met while escaping his screaming fans. Watching these intrigues from the sidelines is Cosmo Brown, Don's best pal and on-set pianist. Cosmo is promoted to musical director of Monumental Pictures by studio head R. F. Simpson when the talking-picture revolution commences. That's all right for Cosmo, but how will talkies affect the upcoming Lockwood-Lamont vehicle "The Dueling Cavalier"? Don, an accomplished song-and-dance man, should have no trouble adapting to the microphone. Lina, however, is another matter: put as charitably as possible, she has a voice that sounds like fingernails on the blackboard. The disastrous preview of the team's first talkie has the audience howling with derisive laughter. On the strength of the plot alone, concocted by the matchless writing team of Betty Comden and Adolph Green, Singin' in the Rain is a delight. But with the addition of MGM's catalog of Arthur Freed-Nacio Herb Brown songs -- You Were Meant for Me, You Are My Lucky Star, The Broadway Melody, and of course the title song -- the film becomes one of the greatest Hollywood musicals ever made.
We will be casting 3 men and 3 women ranging in age from 30-55. Please call to make an appointment for your audition! We just closed sold-out performances of "Almost, Maine" and are anxious to begin production for The Dinner Party!
