[NEohioPAL] AUDITION Notice - Really Rosie at TrueNorth Cultural Arts

[Laura Golden via NEohioPAL]

*Really Rosie*

A Musical

Book & Lyrics by Maurice Sendak

Music by Carole King



Directed by *Joanna May Hunkins*

Music Direction by *Ben Malkevitch*



Children’s author Maurice Sendak (Where the Wild Things Are) uses
characters from his 1962 Nutshell Libraries to create a day in the life of
young Rosie and her friends as their imaginations run wild on a hot summer
day in front of a Brooklyn stoop. Pop icon Carole King (“Natural Woman”,
“Beautiful”) composed the original rock score for the 1975 TV special and
1980 Off Broadway hit that has become beloved by generations. Much like the
Peanuts gang in “You’re A Good Man, Charlie Brown”, all of the kids can be
played by young adults and all of the actors work together as a tight
ensemble of principal roles.



*For this production we will be seeking singing actors ages 8-14*


*Audition Date:*

Tues. April 12th from 6-9pm


*Audition Preparation:*

Please prepare two contemporary musical theatre or pop/rock cuttings
(approx. 32 bars each) and a short comedic story or joke.


*Available Roles:*

*Rosie* – loves to sing and dance; she’s the sassiest kid on the block and
the leader of the group

*Kathy* – Rosie’s sidekick; somewhat awkward, but always happy to go along
with Rosie’s plan

*Alligator* – clueless, but lovable; could be played by a male or female

*Johnny* – intellectual beyond his years and a bit anti-social because of it

*Pierre* – a spoiled brat who bullies everyone, but deep down loves his

older kids
