A previous production of the Missoula Theatre |
A little red truck pulls into town with everything it takes to mount a full-scale musical production…except the cast.
An annual Shoreline Arts Festival tradition! Sixty local students are cast in a play, rehearse for a week with professional actor/directors from Missoula Children’s Theatre touring company and perform a show on Saturday. On Monday they'll be cast as characters, by Saturday they’ve gained character.
Group auditions are held on June 22, 2015 at 3:45pm at the Shoreline Center – open to all students grades K-12.
This year’s play is Aladdin.
For Aladdin it’s not easy to find a magic lamp but it’s even harder to get a date! It’s a swirling sandstorm of famous Arabian Tales from Ali Baba to Scheherazade, and even Sinbad the Sailor, as Aladdin journeys to find a magic lamp in a Cave of (not-so-great) Wonders.
Along his way Aladdin seeks answers and advice from wise Genies, a powerful Sultan, and his own Mother to find a way to meet the Princess. However, even with the lamp in hand, Aladdin will have to learn that it takes more than a wish to make a good impression. Full of memorable characters, from lost Penguins to talking Palm Trees, this is an adventure worthy of 1001 laughs.
There is a $70 casting fee for any student who is selected to participate, and cast members will need to be available in the evenings the week of June 22 for rehearsals.
See the Arts Council website for more details and to register for auditions.
