Open auditions for Ducktails & Bobbysox and Oz!

ANDERSON, IN - Kidz Take the Stage (KTS), a performing arts group for students ages 5-18 will hold open auditions on January 6th, 7th, and 8th from 5pm-8pm.  Auditions will be held at the KTS Performing Arts Studio located at the Parathea Building, 1125 Main Street in Anderson (behind the Paramount Theatre).  Prospective castmembers may schedule an audition time in advance, but walk-ins will also be accepted anytime during audition hours. 

Students should come prepared to sing a short solo acappella, though not all parts in the shows require vocal ability.  Prospective castmembers will also be asked to read from the script and dance a short choreographed number they will be taught at the auditions.  There is no fee to audition, and students may audition for both shows.  For those chosen as castmembers, there is a $35 fee per student per show, but a discount will be given to any student selected to be in both casts. 

A t-shirt is included in the castmember fee.  Sibling discounts are also available. 

Ducktails & Bobbysox is a hilarious musical highlighting classic high school relationships from the 1950's, including some great 50's style music.  Rehearsals for Ducktails & Bobbysox will be Mondays and Wednesdays from 6-8pm beginning January 14th and show dates will be March 18th and 19th at the Paramount Theatre Hardacre Ballroom.

Oz! is a dazzling upbeat musical adaptation of the timeless tale The Wizard of Oz.  It has all of our familiar friends: Dorothy, Scarecrow, Lion, Tin Woodsman, Glenda, the wicked witch and her winged monkeys, and a very Modern version of the Munchkins.  Join them as they journey through this bright, updated musical version of Oz.  Rehearsals for Oz! will be Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6-8pm beginning on February 3rd with show dates on April 29th and 30th at the Paramount Theatre Hardacre Ballroom.
