Four eccentric Broadway stars are in desperate need of a new stage. So when they hear that trouble is brewing around a small-town prom, they know that it’s time to put a spotlight on the issue…and themselves. The town’s parents want to keep the high school dance on the straight and narrow—but when one student just wants to bring her girlfriend to prom, the entire town has a date with destiny. On a mission to transform lives, Broadway’s brassiest join forces with a courageous girl and the town’s citizens and the result is love that brings them all together.
To audition: Prepare and sing 16-32 measures of two contrasting musical theater songs. There will not be a pianist, so have your music on your phone or other electronic device. We can also pull up a YouTube video on the theater computer. NO ACAPELLA, unless the song was originally sung that way. There will also be cold readings from the script and possible choreography. If you have never performed in a Breakthrough show, please bring a current headshot, or face picture. Resumes are optional.
