About the Play: “In this long-running, off-Broadway hit musical revue, Broadway’s greatest musical legends meet Broadway’s greatest satirist in this hilarious, loving, and endlessly entertaining tribute to some of the theatre’s greatest stars and songwriters. It’s a comedic parody musical review that features show tunes that are slightly altered from well-known musicals and its stars.”

What to Prepare: “Please prepare two contrasting songs (preferably from musical theatre) that best show off your range (16-32 bars/approximately 30 seconds each). Pieces can be acapella or you can bring a backing track on your mobile device. We will have an aux cord to play songs. The show includes musical parodies of many broadway songs so we want to see your range. Some of the musicals ‘spoofed’ in the show are listed below for reference. The show also features songs in the style of artists such as Liza Minelli, Carole Channing, and Barbara Streisand.” Shows Featured: Chicago, Annie, Into the Woods, Hello Dolly!, West Side Story, Wicked, Les Miserables, Phantom of the Opera, Mamma Mia, Rent, Spamalot, Cats, Fiddler on the Roof, Hairspray, A Chorus Line And More!

Character Breakdowns: “We are seeking singer/actors and actresses who excel in comic timing and characterization. We plan to cast at least 4-8 performers of varying ages and backgrounds. There will be dancing in the show but you do not have to be a ‘strong’ dancer.”
