Auditions for Missoula Children’s Theatre’s Robinson Crusoe at Harmony Hall, Dec 9

Auditions for Missoula Children’s Theatre’s Robinson Crusoe at Harmony Hall, Dec 9

Auditions: Missoula Children’s Theatre, Robinson Crusoe

Harmony Hall Arts Center
10701 Livingston Rd, Fort Washington, MD, 20744
301-203-6070

Missoula Children’s Theatre provides two professional tour actor/directors who will audition and cast 50-60 local elementary school students in a full-length, original musical production of The Snow Queen. Children must be at the John Addison Concert Hall by 4:30pm. Latecomers will not be admitted. Please wear comfortable clothing. All materials for song and movement auditions will be provided.

We arrive on Robinson’s island years after he and his sole companion, a goat named Wilson, are shipwrecked. We find that the island has turned into a tourist destination centered around a lovable singing leopard, a tribe of natives known for their colorful coifs, Friday’s Seaside Resort and, of course, the legend of Robinson Crusoe. In a flashback, his story comes to life beginning with the shipwreck, which marooned him and Wilson on the island.

The entire population of the island, including a herd of goats, an all-animal band, Friday and his family, and the inevitable hula-dancing chameleons, discover that our differences need not stand in the way of our friendships. All of the characters live happily and harmoniously ever after.
