The Strollers are seeking performers of all ages to come be a part of the magic!
Our midwinter children’s show—Narnia, the Musical—follows the adventures of four siblings after they stumble upon (and through) a wardrobe into the magical kingdom of Narnia. In this spellbound landscape, filled with creatures of myth and fable, the children face temptation and fear, but learn deep lessons of courage, unselfishness, and wisdom that help them grow in spirit and prepare them for life in our world. Based on the magical book, The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis.
Various roles available (See descriptions below).
Please bring sheet music and prepare 16 bars of a show tune that showcases your range. We will also be reading scenes from the script.
