Director Ashley Underwood, Assistant Director Bailey Carpenter, and Music Director Laura Lee Julian are excited to announce audition for the upcoming RCCT production of Into the Woods!
“The story follows a Baker and his wife, who wish to have a child; Cinderella, who wishes to attend the King's Festival; and Jack, who wishes his cow would give milk. When the Baker and his wife learn that they cannot have a child because of a Witch's curse, the two set off on a journey to break the curse. Everyone's wish is granted, but the consequences of their actions return to haunt them later with disastrous results.”
We are so excited to produce this hilarious but heartfelt musical. We will be looking for approximately 9 men and 10 women, and will also have a few other smaller parts available. A true ensemble show, each part has many opportunities to shine and varying ages are needed.
Auditions will consist of cold readings from the script as well as a music audition. Laura Lee requests you prepare a song to audition with, preferably not from Into the Woods.
Show dates for Into the Woods are June 14-16, 21-23, 2024.
