Audition Notice! Shotgun Wedding needs YOU!

Shotgun Wedding needs to fill out the entourage!

AUDITION NOTICE

Looking for 3 males to fill roles in Leonard Cervantes’ Theatre Musical “Shotgun Wedding”. While the roles call for Filipino males aged 15-20, we welcome men of any ethnicity to audition.   (and you don’t actually have to *BE* 15-20 yrs old!)

About the play:

An unexpected pregnancy threatens a Filipina debutante’s dream of the perfect 18th birthday. It was supposed to be Toni Braxton on repeat, 18 roses and crinoline. But instead, it’s a game of hide the baby-daddy and morning sickness in between. Set to the tune of original songs by Kierscey Rand plus a few 90s classics, Len Cervantes’ site-specific Shotgun Wedding uncovers the craziness behind Filipino tradition — while audience members get to experience a real Debutante Ball.

The play will be produced at the Fringe Festival this summer. All actors must be committed to a rehearsal schedule that consists of Mondays 11am-4pm starting April 11th leading up to production, with additional Wed day and tech rehearsal times leading up to the run.

Actors must:
Sing
Dance
Act
Commit to the rehearsal schedule

Auditions are on Wed Mar 30th in 15 min slots starting 9:30am-12:30pm. Please e-mail the director, Catherine Hernandez at theloudlady@gmail.com to book an audition time.

Actors will be asked to perform 1-2 pop ballads from the 90s that show off their range PLUS do a cold read of portions of the script.
