Papermill Playhouse Seeks Child Actors For 'A Christmas Story: The Musical'

Do you know a child actor that’s a dead ringer for Ralphie in “A Christmas Story?”

The Papermill Playhouse of Millburn announced that it will be holding non-union children’s auditions for the theater’s production of “A Christmas Story: The Musical,” on Saturday, October 3, at Pearl Studios, 500 8th Ave, NYC.

“A Christmas Story: The Musical” will run at the Millburn theater from Nov. 25 through Jan. 3, 2016.

Rehearsals begin on Sunday, October 25.

According to the theater:

“Paper Mill Playhouse seeks boys and girls who look ages 9 to 13 and sing well with some tap dancing experience. Open call will begin at 10am and sign-in will start at 9 a.m. All children will be taught a section of a song from the show and then will sing it for their initial audition. All members of the children’s ensemble will likely tap dance in this production. Some children will do more basic tap and some will do more advanced tap. Callback in the afternoon will be a dance call, so please bring tap shoes and jazz shoes. Bring a picture and resume stapled together and bring your book with a song of your own; an accompanist will be provided.”
