Audition notice for Stephen Sondheim’s Into the Woods at MCT

The Missoula Community Theatre is holding an AUDITION on Sunday, January 9th, 2022, from 1-4PM at the MCT Center for the Performing Arts.  Please use the main street entrance and proceed to the 3rd floor to complete the audition form.  Those auditioning for a musical will be asked to sing and read from the script; call-backs begin later that day. The audition is open to ages 16 and older. The musical score is full of exciting lyrics, fast-paced tempos and a mix of solos, duets and group numbers from the late Stephen Sondheim, of West Side Story, Sweeney Todd and other award-winning scores.  No previous experience is required, although appreciation for dark comedy is a plus, as the fairytale is not as traditional as one would think. The production is billed as PG-13.  There is a good deal of movement on the stage, but the show does not include traditional dance numbers.

Joseph Martinez will be directing this production of Into the Woods, which is a show like no other and requires a strong ensemble cast of singers and actors.  There are roles for 6 males and 10 females who will bring to life beloved fairytale characters such as Cinderella, a Wolf, Rapunzel, a Witch, The Baker, The Baker’s Wife, a pair of Princes, a Mysterious Man, Narrator, a Giant and more! The finished production runs March 10-20, 2022 at the MCT Center for the Performing Arts.  There are no perusal scripts available at MCT.  For more information about auditioning for a Missoula Community Theatre production, visit https://mctinc.org/audition/
