[Capdist-auditions] Heather the Musical Auditions

[Jj Buechner]

The Local Actors Guild of Saratoga proudly announces auditions for their
October production of Heathers the Musical.

Based on the classic 1989 film, Westerberg High is ruled by a
shoulder-padded, scrunchie-wearing junta: Heather, Heather and Heather, the
hottest and cruelest girls in all of Ohio. But misfit Veronica Sawyer
rejects their evil regime for a new boyfriend, the dark and sexy stranger
J.D., who plans to put the Heathers in their place - six feet under.

Auditions are Tuesday, May 17th – 7pm at the Saratoga Arts Center, 320
Broadway, Saratoga Springs. Please prepare a 16-32 measure upbeat song.
There will be a dance audition, please come prepared to move. Actors will
read from provided sides. Video auditions will not be accepted. If you have
any questions please email localactorsguild at gmail.com. Any actor
auditioning that is under the age of 18 will need parental consent.
