The cast includes 1 male, 6 females and 3 actors who can be either. This fast-paced show is a cut-to-the chase re-telling of the classic fairy tale which will leave you laughing. Directed by Richie Lynch. For our older actors, *The Great American Talent Show *includes 12 characters who can be either female or male. The 40-minute show is a wonderful parody of America’s Got Talent, in which 3 self-important judges select a winner from a group of eager and unique contestants. The laughs are BIG even if the talent is small. Directed by Greg Dziama. Open auditions will consist of cold readings from the script.
