Auditions: Big Shows, Small Box

We're pleased to announce auditions for our upcoming musical, "Big Shows, Small Box" which celebrates the hilarity of attempting large scale musical numbers and scenes without the large scale budget. Imagine every giant smash hit musical you can think of and squeezing them all into a tiny theatre space. Intrigued? Don't miss the glamour, the prestige, the spectacle of Epideimc Theatre's musical revue, "Big Shows, Small Box". All your broadway favorites - Wicked, Les Miserables, The Book of Mormon, Lion King, Xanadu, and 35 more shows condensed into one small space and one unforgettable evening! Originally written by Stacia Kingston and Spencer G. Stephens with revisions by George Canady and Spencer G. Stephens. This ensemble musical features actors portraying several roles throughout the two act show and will require actors who aren't afraid to sing or dance. We encourage people who have an interest in theatre to audition, regardless of skill level. Part of Epidemic's core mission is to promote theatrical excellence through education and growth of our community.
