Cast Size: Small to Large (5 to 20+ performers, FLEXIBLE) The production team fully intends for suitable divvying of roles to best tell the story, and over 30 roles exist within the script. The more storytellers, the merrier!
Dance Requirements: None to minor – “Fezziwig’s Christmas Party” scene is the notable moment
Please come prepared to tell a joke or funny story. A song may be helpful as well.
The song may be any Christmas carol, but it doesn’t have to be. The point is to give our music director an idea of your singing ability and vocal range.
The joke or funny story will give us an idea of your level of comfort when performing.

We will have portions of the script for you to read, which may be read with other auditionees.
