Milton Theatre Announces Auditions For “Cabaret” Production
The Milton Theatre is ready to start again for their first in-house production of 2022! This time with the 1967 Tony Award-winning musical, Cabaret, with music by John Kander, lyrics by Fred Ebb, and book by Joe Masteroff.. A show isn’t a show without the talent though, and Cabaret requires a talented cast of strong singers and actors. Think you have what it takes? Open auditions for Cabaret are set for January 3, 2022 at 5pm at the Milton Theatre.
Synopsis:
Welcome to the infamous Kit Kat Klub, where the Emcee, Sally Bowles, and a raucous ensemble take the stage nightly to tantalize the crowd--and to leave their troubles outside. But as life in pre-WWII Germany grows more and more uncertain, will the decadent allure of Berlin nightlife be enough to get them through their dangerous times?
Cabaret requires all characters to be strong actors, and singers, with a love for performing. We are looking for the actors to create the “experience” of being inside the Kit Kat Klub. The audience should be immersed into the whole attitude, feeling, and culture, that is the Kit Kat Klub. Interested parties can also submit an advance video audition performing 16 bars of any song that highlights the style, character, and range of the role you’re auditioning for. No a capella. Send videos together with a resume, latest headshot, and any questions to productionmanager@pcashows.com. Callbacks will be on the same day. Compensation for shows.
