TACT AUDITIONS FOR MUSICAL 13
Thalian Association Children’s Theater (TACT) will hold auditions for the Wilmington premiere of the Broadway musical 13 on Saturday, January 9 at 10AM sharp. Open to ages 11 through high school seniors. No prepared material is required; be prepared to dance (no sandals or flip-flops). The production, directed and choreographed by David T. Loudermilk with music direction by Linda Carilse-Markas, runs March 5-7 at the Hannah Block 2nd Street Stage, 120 S. 2nd Street in downtown Wilmington, where the auditions will be held.
13 is a grown-up musical about growing up. When his parents get divorced and he's forced to move from New York to a small town in Indiana, Evan Goldman just wants to make friends and survive the school year. Easier said than done. The star quarterback is threatening to ruin his life and his only friend, Patrice, won't talk to him. The school freak sees an opportunity for blackmail and someone is spreading nasty rumors. With an unforgettable rock score from Tony Award-winning composer Jason Robert Brown, 13 is a hilarious, high-energy musical for all ages about discovering that cool is where you find it, and sometimes where you least expect it.
