SUMMARY:LA CAGE AUX FOLLES
DESCRIPTION:In this much loved musical that inspired The Birdcage\, we peer into the living quarters of a famed drag nightclub where two men partnered in love as well as show-biz\, Georges and Albin have their self-worth challenged after twenty years of un-wedded bliss when Georges’ son announces his impending marriage to the daughter of a conservative\, right-wing politician. Georges reluctantly agrees to masquerade as “normal” to meet the family of the bride-to-be\, but Albin has other plans\, which escalate with hilarious results! In this charming and incredibly funny musical\, we learn that families come in all forms\, and that it is all right to be as you are! \nCAST LIST:\n\nNoah Wagner (ALBIN/ZAZA)\nStephen Alan Carver (GEORGES)\nJohn Vann (JEAN-MICHEL)\nAustin James (JACOB)\nNori T.

SUMMARY:WATER BY THE SPOONFUL
DESCRIPTION:In this 2012 Pulitzer Prize winning drama\,  Quiara Alegrîa Hudes\, writer of the book for Lin-Manuel Miranda’s In the Heights\, introduces us to Elliot\, a veteran of the Iraq war. As he struggles to find his place in the world\, we are also introduced to the members of an addiction chat room just trying to get through the day. When Elliot’s mother dies\, cyber meets reality\, anger gives way to understanding\, and the resistance to their pasts and each other becomes a chance at forgiveness. In this heartfelt meditation on lives on the brink of redemption\, the boundaries of family and community are stretched across continents and cyberspace\, as birth families splinter\, and online families collide.  \nCAST LIST:\n\nSynida Fontes (ODESSA ORTIZ)\nMarco Andrew Estrada (ELLIOT ORTIZ)\nMaria V.

It’s 1967: the Vietnam War raging and the Age of Aquarius is dawning. Claude\, his best friend Berger\, their roommate Sheila\, and their Tribe of friends struggle to balance the demands of the harsh and violent world with their dream for a more beautiful and peaceful world. When Claude receives his draft notice\, he must decide whether to join his friends in resisting the draft\, or bow to the pressures of society and his conservative parents\, thereby sacrificing his ideals and\, possibly\, his life. Hair was a sensation when it premiered in 1967\, as it brought the counterculture movement into the theatre and the national spotlight. The issues the show brings up – alienation\, civil disobedience\, youthful defiance – continue to timelessly resonate today. \nCASTING THE FOLLOWING ROLES:\nAll ethnicities are encouraged to audition. \nGEORGE BERGER (M\, Rock Baritone/Tenor) A social activist recently banished from high school. An unrestrained animal. He knows what is right and sticks to it no matter the consequence. The leader of the tribe. High energy\, athletic\, wild. Strong presence and is looked up to. Strong improv skills preferred. (NUDITY REQUIRED) \nCLAUDE (M\, Rock Baritone/Tenor) The most beautiful beast in the forest. Smart\, attractive male with a playful side; a lover of life and the picture of a young man next door of the 60’s. Strong actor. Berger’s best friend\, recently drafted\, whose only possession\, other than his freedom\, is his hair. A charismatic leader that women adore\, boys emulate\, and men follow into the breach. A man of conscience who struggles with the conflict of what his heart tells him is right and what the authorities around him lead him to believe. Strong improv skills preferred. \nSHEILA (F\, Rock Alto/Belter) A second semester student and passionate protester from NYU who lives with Berger and Claude\, aspires to spread love\, loves Berger\, but having Claude’s baby. The most intelligent of the tribe. Wants to change society through peaceful protest. Must have a strong voice and presence. Strong improv skills a plus. (NUDITY REQUIRED) \nJEANIE (F\, Alto) A follower\, not a leader. Incredibly sweet\, understands Claude better than anyone. Wise\, passionate\, creative woman\, who is pregnant with the tribe’s baby. She has taken every drug\, and takes care of the tribe. Strong actress to play comedic and dramatic scenes. Strong improv skills preferred. \nCRISSY (F\, Mezzo) a flower child mourning a lost love. The youngest female of the tribe. Sings “Frank Mills”. Strong improv skills a plus. (NUDITY REQUIRED.) \nDIONNE (F\, African American\, Alto/Mezzo Belt) Sassy and lots of fun.

(NUDITY REQUIRED) \nWOOF (M\, Rock Baritone) May not want to admit it\, but he is gay. A young animal. High energy\, versatile performer. Must be a natural with comedy. Looks up to Berger and Mick Jagger…in many ways. Strong improv skills a plus. (NUDITY REQUIRED) \nTOURIST/MARGARET MEAD (M\, Tenor) Male in drag. Strong comic timing and improv skills preferred. \nTHE TRIBE (M & F\, various vocal ranges.)  This is not a “chorus”\, as the entire cast is a true ensemble.
