*"The streets are a little kinder when you're home."*

*About the Show*
A vibrant community in New York’s Washington Heights neighborhood – a place
where the coffee from the corner bodega is light and sweet, the windows are
always open and the breeze carries the rhythm of three generations of
music. It’s a community on the brink of change, full of hopes, dreams and
pressures, where the biggest struggles can be deciding which traditions you
take with you, and which ones you leave behind. IN THE HEIGHTS is the
winner of the 2008 Tony Awards for Best Musical, Best Score, Best
Choreography and Best Orchestrations.

*Audition Requirements*
Ages 13-21 are eligible to audition
Prepare 16 bars of a Lin-Manuel Miranda song from any of his shows
(something from In the Heights is acceptable).
Men interested in Usnavi, Benny, Sonny or Graffiti Pete, please also
prepare 30-60 seconds of a rap.

*Rehearsal Information*
Rehearsals will begin in mid June and run Sunday-Thursday. Not everyone
will be called every day, but please bring a list of ALL conflicts from 1pm
to 9pm June 12-August 3. Rehearsals will be EITHER in afternoon or evening,
not both in the same day. Times will not be determined until after casting
and will be decided based on cast availability, so if you are NOT available
in either the afternoon or evening, please note that. This is to work
around as many of the Chardon conflicts as possible including marching band

OPENING NIGHT WINE AND CHEESE BEFORE THE SHOW!
Set under and above the high seas, The Little Mermaid tells the story of
Ariel, an adventurous young mermaid who’s got a thing for disobeying the
rules and following her heart. Ariel’s fascination with the human world
often leads her to the sea surface, a zone that’s designated as
“off-limits” by her father Triton, the sea king. One day while sneaking to
the surface, Ariel witnesses a shipwreck and rescues Prince Eric, with whom
she become instantly smitten. Furious at Triton’s inability to understand
her love for the prince, Ariel runs away and strikes a deal with Ursula,
Triton’s evil witch of a sister, to experience the life she dreams of on
land.
