Auditions Open For Ocean City Theatre Company Student Shows

OCEAN CITY, NJ — Kids looking for fun activities now that they're back to school? Ocean City Theatre Company has announced auditions for their fall and holiday productions of "Into the Woods" and "Finding Nemo Jr."

Auditions are by appointment only and will be held on Sept. 9 and 10 at the Ocean City Theatre Company. To learn more about the rehearsal schedule, audition process, or to secure an audition timeslot, visit the education page of www.oceancitytheatrecompany.com.

Students in grades seven through 12 are eligible to audition for "Into the Woods," which will be performed at the Music Pier on Nov. 3 and 4. Authors and composers, James Lapine and Stephen Sondheim, take everyone's favorite storybook characters and bring them together for a timeless, yet relevant, piece... and a rare modern classic. "Into the Woods" Tony Award-winning book and score are both enchanting and touching.

Students in grades three through eight are eligible to audition for "Disney's Finding Nemo Jr.", which will be a treat for Music Pier audiences on Dec. 8 through 10. Based on the 2003 Disney/Pixar film, "Finding Nemo Jr." features Marlin, an anxious and over-protective clownfish who lives in the Great Barrier Reef with his kid Nemo, who longs to explore the world beyond their anemone home. But when Nemo is captured and taken to Sydney, Marlin faces his fears and sets off on an epic adventure across the ocean. With the help of lovable characters such as optimistic Dory, laid-back sea turtle Crush, and the supportive Tank Gang, Marlin, and Nemo both overcome challenges on their journey to find each other and themselves.

Tickets for "Into the Woods" and "Disney's Finding Nemo Jr." are on sale now. Visit www.oceancitytheatrecompany.com to reserve your seats.
