Auditions: Into The Woods

admin — Thu, 05 Jun 2008 23:31:35 +0000

Springville Playhouse announces auditions for its upcoming Youth Theater production of “Into the Woods.” The show is being produced to open August 1, and is scheduled for six shows around the first two weekends in August. Auditions will be in the City Council Chambers, 50 S. Main in Springville. They will be held on Friday, May 30, from 7 to 9 p.m. and Saturday morning from 9 until noon.

Each person auditioning should be prepared to sing a short selection (no longer than one minute) either with their own accompaniment or a cappella. They will also be asked to do cold readings from the script. The show is being directed by Daryl Tucker and Jill Bell.

Additional information can be obtained by calling Tucker at 427-9318.

Shows will be held in the Springville Playhouse theater located in the city building under the library.

This will be a shortened version of the original Broadway musical written by James Lapine and Stephen Sondheim, especially adapted for younger performers by Music Theater International.

Springville Playhouse tries to alternate between a children’s show and a youth production each summer and this will be the opportunity for the older group of 12 to 18 year-olds to perform. It will be a chance to showcase the talents of our junior and senior high school aged singers and actors.

Hello Dolly
By Thornton Wilder

Directed by Robinne Booth

A certain old merchant of Yonkers is so rich in 1800 that he decides to take a wife. He employs a matchmaker, a woman who subsequently becomes involved with two of his menial clerks, assorted young and lovely ladies, and the headwaiter at an expensive restaurant where this swift farce runs headlong into hilarious complications. After everyone gets straightened out romantically and has his heart’s desire, the merchant finds himself affianced to the astute matchmaker herself. He who was so shrewd in business is putty in the hands of Dolly Levi. He is fooled by apprentices in a series of hilarious hide and seek scenes, and finally has all his bluster explode in his face.

George Washington Slept Here
By Moss Hart and George S. Kaufman

Directed by Jake Suazo

New Yorkers Newton and Anabelle have to move from their apartment. Without Newton’s knowledge, Annabelle purchases a dilapidated old farmhouse in Pennsylvania, where George Washington was supposed to have actually slept during the American Revolution. Much of the humor comes from the couple’s many problems they encounter while trying to fix up the place.

We are honored to work with Jake, an award-winning Director, and founder of the “Thrillionaires” Improv Theater in Provo.
