The Young People’s Center for Creative Arts (YPCCA) announces auditions for the May 2011 scholarship fundraising production of “Into the Woods.”
Auditions will take place on Monday, Feb. 6 and Tuesday, Feb. 7, from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m. at the Goff House at 2 Barton Hill Road in East Hampton, CT.
All roles in the show are open to performers from age 13 to adult. Please come prepared with a song of your choice (accompanist provided) or to sing a piece from the show. You may also be asked to read from the script and learn a short dance combination.
Rehearsals will be Sundays from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. and Wednesdays from 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.
Performance dates are May 11 to 13 with the possibility of a second weekend of performances, at Coginchaug High School in Durham, CT on May 18 and 19.
Some roles in the show may be double-cast.
YPCCA is also looking for motivated students age 7 – 12 to play some fairytale roles in the show, including the three little pigs, Cinderella’s birds and mice, etc. This youth ensemble will be limited to 20 children.
Their time commitment will be limited and they will appear only in the first act of the show. This is a great opportunity for those students who are interested in learning more about musical theater and for those who have a strong interest in it to perform with an older cast of teens and adults.
All proceeds from this production will go toward the Mike and Adina Mansfield Memorial Scholarship. This scholarship is awarded to a graduating East Hampton senior who plans to pursue a degree in the arts or education.
