hARTworks Productions,
Casting Opportunity Paid Actor/Singers open to Ages 16-55
Thank you to those who have already submitted. What a fantastic response! Several roles have
been cast.
This is for a demo
recording of the score. Each recording session pays between $50 and $100 depending
on amount of singing required. Must be
able to learn music independently with limited coaching. Exciting reading and workshop production soon
to come.
This is a great opportunity to help shape the characters and
music of a new musical. Jenna and the
Troublemaker had a bright start with the Sundance Theatre Program and has a
promising future, now supported by the Ohio Arts Council. I’m truly thrilled to be developing this in
my hometown of Cleveland, with so much amazing talent!
The music is complex, influenced by Sondheim or Adam Guettel
in that it moves the action of the story forward and deepens character
development. Not a rock/pop opera.
