Which side of the stage do you want to be on this spring?

We are holding auditions for the spring’s musical performance this week (March 15-18). Auditions will mostly be done asynchronously and will generally require you to sing (although there are a few non-singing roles) and tell Ms. Sheena Beeson a little bit about yourself and why you wanted to audition. Just join the Google Classroom if you want to audition, using the code: ljtu3qe.

We are performing two one-act musicals this year and could need anywhere from 10-30 people, depending on how we configure the shows.

Here are the descriptions:

The Mystery of Custodia: Hi-Mount School is in crisis! Mr. Humphrey, the school janitor mysteriously stopped showing up, leaving Drama Teacher Ms. McGery to take his place. Beloved Lunch Lady Linda has mysteriously disappeared without a trace, and there’s a mysterious wallet with some disturbing notes found in Custodia!

When Drama Club member (and amateur sleuth) Foster has to bring the dead classroom goldfish down to Custodia – a mysterious area of school where janitors roam and rumors abound – she gets more than she bargained for! Enlisting the help of her fellow drama club members, and trying to hold the meddlesome school reporter at bay, Foster tries to solve the greatest mystery of them all: The Mystery of Custodia.

The Moment: Sometimes your life can change in just a moment. The Moment, a new Zoom musical, explores different moments in the lives of the characters, that one moment when everything changes.

In The Moment, we watch these young people, and seven of their contemporaries, struggle — and then celebrate the joy, peace and hope in these life changing moments.
