Auditions are being held this weekend for the musical Disney's The Little Mermaid, Jr. (based on the beloved animated movie, of course).
Auditions are open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 11, and 2 to 5 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 12, at the Premiere Dance Studio, 716 6th St., in Huntington, W.Va.
Participants can sign up at any time during those two audition dates. There is no charge to audition or to take part in a First Stage Theatre Company production, and no theater experience is required. Auditions are open to young people who will be entering grades kindergarten through 12 this fall.
Auditioners should arrive ready to sing a 30-second section of the song of their choice — an accompanist will be provided. They will also be given a few lines from the script to read, and they’ll be taught a short dance step to demonstrate during the audition. Be sure to wear comfortable clothes and shoes.
The show will be presented Oct. 23-28, at the Renaissance Theatre (the old Huntington High School).
The directing team includes: Director Chuck Minsker, Music Director Mark Smith, Choreographer Melissa McGuffin, Assistant Director Robyn Welch and Set Construction Director Jack Welch.
Based in Huntington, the First Stage Theatre Company is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing an educational, developmental experience for young people through the performing arts.
For more information, contact Minsker at 304-736-4366.
