First Company Auditions: A Broadway Revue
12/12, 13 & 15 | 6:00-9:00pm | Theatre | mtfenn1@gmail.com

Mark your calendars now for auditions for First Company's upcoming Broadway Revue. This will be a two- weekend performance that is designed around the folks who come out for auditions. That's right--YOU will help us bring this show to life! Auditioners are asked to prepare two musical selections (16-32 bars each) of songs from musicals old and new, traditional and contemporary! Come as a soloist, bring a friend and sing a duet, or bring more and show us what you've prepared together. There will be accompanists at the auditions to play music selections if you bring them, but you may also bring backing tracks on CD if you like. Auditions are 12/12 and 12/13 from 6:00pm-9:00pm, and call backs will be held by invitation on Thursday, 12/15 at the same time. Sign up by visiting go.fumc-cs.org/auditions. Please bring a list of conflicts during the rehearsal and show process to your audition. 

Rehearsals start January 9, Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesdays from 6:00-9:30pm. Please note that the rehearsal schedule will be flexible and contigent upon which numbers need work. If you are performing a solo piece and have everything prepared, you may have a lighter rehearsal schedule, so please note that rehearsal schedule will be flexible as we go.
