<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%"> The Mac-Haydn Theatre will hold auditions on Saturday, April 6, to fill
roles for youngsters needed in the 45<sup>th</sup> Anniversary season shows.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%"> Girls
who sing and move well will be cast as Baby June and Baby Louise in <i>Gypsy</i>, and both boys and girls are
needed to appear in scenes and songs in the beginning of the show. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%"> A
waif-like girl is needed for an important role with a song that demands an
exceptional voice in the TBA show, which is a powerful musical classic new to
the Mac-Haydn stage. A small boy is also
needed in that show, to play a ragamuffin street wise youth. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%"> Other
children may be cast in children’s theatre shows throughout the season. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%"> Please
prepare a short song, and bring music, in your key. An accompanist is
provided. Children will also be led in a
short, simple movement call. Call-backs may be held at a later date for some of
the roles.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%"> Rehearsals
for the TBA show start on July 5, with performances July 25 through August 4. <i>Gypsy</i> rehearsals will begin August 9;
the show runs August 22 through September 1.
Children will not need to be at the theatre all day, every day during
the rehearsal time; they will be required to attend all rehearsals during the
opening week of the show and be at all performances. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%"> The
auditions will be held at the Mary E. Dardess Elementary School, off Woodbridge Ave. in Chatham (turn into the school access road
near the railroad tracks), from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.</p>
