Audition Requirements:
For Heathers: The Musical: Please prepare a 1-2 minute comedic or dramatic monologue, preferably memorized, from a contemporary playwright. Please prepare 16 measures of music to sing from a contemporary musical or other piece of contemporary pop/rock music. Please be prepared to dance at auditions.

For Under Construction: Those auditioning should dress to move, and plan to stay for the entire time-it's OK if you need to slip out to audition for Heathers. Be prepared to demonstrate a talent other than acting-play a musical instrument, do a short dance, tell a great joke, or even whistle happy birthday. We will also be reading from the script. No additional preparation is needed.

About the Productions:
Heathers: The Musical is a hilarious, heartfelt, and homicidal show that features a moving love story, laugh-out-loud comedy, and an unflinching look at the joys and anguish of high school.
The cast rehearses January 16-April 5, and performs April 6-15.

Under Construction is a collage of song, performances, monologues, and scenes that form a picture of an America of the past and present; the "greatest generation" through to the current one. The cast rehearses February 12, and performs May 4-13. For additional information, please contact producer Titian Lish at (925) 424 1127 or tlish@laspositascollege.edu.
