Saturday April 2nd -

 Open Call for Actors, Singers and Musicians aged 9-18 yrs old!

ALL PERFORMERS AND PIT MUSICIANS UNDER AGE 19!!



Consortium Actors is delighted to announce auditions for the Capital Region’s premiere of School of Rock the musical! <>
SCHOOL OF ROCK is a brand-new musical based on the famous Paramount film. The musical follows Dewey Finn, a failed, wannabe rock star who decides to earn a few extra bucks by posing as a substitute teacher at a prestigious prep school. Completely disinterested in academic work, Dewey decides to create his own curriculum, turning his class into a guitar-shredding, bass-slapping, mind-blowing rock band. The stage musical currently on Broadway is produced by Andrew Lloyd Webber, who has composed 14 new songs to create a score, which also features all of the original songs from the movie. SCHOOL OF ROCK, with its sensational live kids’ rock band, is a loving testimony to the transforming power of music. May the spirit of rock be with you!
