[Capdist-auditions] Looking for 4 broads who can sing! Auditions for Taffeta Memories March 28 and 29 at Colonie Cook Park

[Michael McDermott]

OK Broads …. here’s the opportunity you’ve been waiting for!!!!!

Auditions for Taffeta Memories, produced by the Village of Colonie, to be held March 28 and 29. This production will be performed outdoors at the beautiful Frank A. Leak Amphitheater for the Arts, June 15-18. 
Directed by Michael C. Mensching.

Cast Needed: 4* Women who can act, sing harmony and be able to move and do physical comedy well. 

*4 female singers age 50-65+ (must have the ability to do/learn some simple dancing and movement, and hold harmony without difficulty). We are also looking for all ethnicities and body types. You must be comfortable with your body type as you will be compared to the way you looked 40-50 years ago and you may be doing physical comedy.

This is a musical comedy featuring The Taffetas-- Kaye, Peggy, Cheryl and Donna – four singing sisters from Muncie, Indiana who in the 1950’s were the talk of the town. Now almost 50 years later, they are putting on a reunion show. Take a walk down memory lane with them in this nostalgic musical.

Please bring sheet music for a song that you love to sing. A song from a musical comedy would be great, a song from the era of the music of the ‘50’s or early ‘60’s even better—NOT from Taffeta Memories. Bring 2 or 3 possibilities. Please limit your selection to approx. 2-3 minutes (a partial song is fine). An accompanist will be provided. No a capella singing.

Please do not audition if you are not age appropriate. No offense but veteran actresses have spent the last 10 or 20 years losing parts to the ingénues. It’s their turn now!!! Yours will come later for this one.

Audition dates are: 
Tuesday and Wednesday March 28 and 29, 6:30 PM at the pavilion in Cook Park, Village of Colonie, NY 
(Directions listed below) 
Performance dates are: 
June 15, 16,17 and 18 with a matinee and evening show on Saturday and one matinee on Sunday.
