MYS Casting Call

Calling youth actors of all ages! Marquee Youth Stage is brimming with theatre opportunities this season. From a rock musical to a Disney classic to a zany fairy tale, young performers can take the stage in one or more of these wildly entertaining and exciting shows.

Calling youth ages 9-18 for School of Rock: The Musical, youth production.
Based on the blockbuster hit of 2003, School of Rock: The Musical follows a failed rockstar, Dewey Finn. When the opportunity comes along to pose as a substitute teacher, Dewey takes the chance to pay some rent. Bored with fifth grade academics, Dewey decides to form a rock band with the students, teaching them rock history and rhythm. With 14 additional songs composed by Andrew Lloyd Webber and a live kid’s rock band, School of Rock: The Musical reminds us all of the power of music. Rock on!

The Huns have invaded, and it is up to the misfit Mulan and her mischievous dragon sidekick, Mushu, to save the Emperor! Defying the village matchmaker, Mulan takes up arms and disguises herself as a boy in order to spare her father from having to serve in the army.

Calling grades Pre-K-3rd for A Mixed-Up Fairy Tale, part of our Student Directed Series.
The entire world of fairy tales gets utterly mixed up in this zany play! The Grimm brothers are writing their stories late into the night when suddenly a terrible gust of wind flings the door open and blows the pages everywhere! Later that night, the stories begin to intermingle in Wilhelm’s dreams. Cinderella’s desperately trying to get to the royal ball, but somehow she ends up at Rapunzel’s tower. As her Fairy Godmother mistakenly sends her on to the Seven Dwarves’ cottage and Snow White’s castle, Cinderella meets loads of new friends — dwarves, bears, pigs, and witches! — all of whom are just as lost and out of place as she is! When they all finally make their way to the ball, Cinderella finally meets her prince, and they all share a giant fairy tale party “happily” thereafter!

Tuition is $195 and includes costume, script and t-shirt.
