A NOTE AND REMINDER FROM THE DIRECTOR 
ABOUT "THE WIZARD OF OZ" AUDITIONS AT FINE ARTS

Hello All.  
       Janet Shank here with a reminder and a heads up about what I'm looking 
for in the "OZ" auditions coming up this Monday and Tuesday, Sept. 9 & 10 at 
7:00 PM in the Corning Theatre at The Fine Arts Association in Willoughby. 
(Call Ann Hedger at 440 951-7500 for an appointment.) Monday - Thursday 
rehearsal schedule.  Production dates are Nov. 22 through Dec. 15.  Friday 
nights, Saturday and Sunday afternoons only.  No Saturday nights unless we 
have a complete sell out. (Which is possible as Peter Pan has sold out the 
last two years.)     And..........

 The heads up on what I'm looking for: 

1.  ALL roles are open! 
2.  Adults and teens to play principal roles.
3.  Children, ages 8-14 and/or Adult Little People to play Munchkins.
4.  This will be a traditional production following the film as closely as
        possible with a few exceptions. 
5.  One of the exceptions is the need for 3 very tall drag queens.
6.  Large chorus needed for Emerald City Residence and the Winkies (it helps 
if
        you have your own emerald green clothing.)
7.  The Flying Monkeys!  Mustn't forget the flying Monkeys. (What is it with 
me 
       and monkeys.  The last time was "Inherit The Wind".... Don't answer 
that 
       question!)  
       ZFX will be doing 
       the flying once again.  All ages considered for these roles, but size 
and 
       strength will be a factor as they must fly through the air and pick up
        Dorothy and fly out with her.  Along with the Monkeys, Glinda, The 
Wicked 
        Witch, and The Wizard also fly.
8.    And I don't know what the heck I'm doing about Toto yet.  Budget is 
tight,
       as always, so hiring a professionally trained dog is not an option. 

       I guess that about covers it. If you have any questions just respond 
to this e-mail and I'll do my best to get back to you.  As always, thanks for 
all your time and talent.
