Not Your Mom’s Musical Theater is back for 2014 with auditions for its ground-breaking concert series! The series kicks off with Something Wonderful I Missed: The Musicals of 1964, which will feature selections from the 1964 musical theater season, fifty years ago. Strong singers and emcees are sought to join the concert cast for this season. Concerts are emceed by actors and comedians who illustrate the often ridiculous and always interesting history of the songs.
The series chronicles lesser-known songs and musicals in a funny and engaging way, and concerts will be held on Feb. 16, May 25, July 13, September 28 and November 2. All are Sundays at 4 p.m. at the historic Derry Opera House in Derry.
Auditionees should prepare two memorized, contrasting selections from musical theater (32 bars max each) that show the variety of styles they are capable of, and should bring a resume and sheet music if possible. If performers are unable to attend auditions on January 6th or 7th, please email notyourmoms@gmail.com with a letter of interest and resume. No appointment necessary. Auditionees can audition for 1 or as many as all 5 concerts.

how old do you have to be to audition? 🙂
Hi Brooke! There is no age minimum to audition, but most of the people we’ll be casting are adults. We’d love to see children and teens at the auditions – if we don’t have a spot for you yet, we might need you later in the year since we have five concerts from February – November. Thanks for asking and hope to see you there!
