Missoula Children's Theatre Auditions: 'The Princess and the Pea'

The Rassieur Youth Center invites all youth entering grades 1-12 with base access to audition for a part in this year's Missoula Children's Theatre performance of 'The Princess and the Pea.' Auditions, rehearsals and performances will be held the week of July 14.

Auditions will be held on July 14 from 9-11 a.m. at the Center Stage Theater. Some of the cast members will be asked to stay for a rehearsal immediately following the audition.

Approximately 50-60 roles are available for students entering 1st grade through12th grade. Among the roles to be cast are the Princess, the Pea, King and Queen Size of Riverdom, Storm King and Snow Queen of Glacierdom, the Prince, the mischievous Jack Frost, the citizens of Riverdom and Glacierdom, the Dust Bunnies, and some wannabe princesses and meddling leprechauns.

In this original musical adaptation of the classic original, find out what Glacierdom and Riverdom have in common and what the leprechauns know!

No advance preparation for auditions is necessary. Assistant Directors will also be cast to aid in rehearsals throughout the week and to take on essential backstage responsibilities.

The Missoula Children's Theatre touring productions are complete with costumes, scenery and props. MCT Tour Actor/Directors will conduct rehearsals July 14-18 from 9-11 a.m. and 12:15-2:15 p.m. Rehearsal times will be based upon the part received.

The final performances will be held on July 18 at 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. All those with base access are invited to attend these free performances.

Students taking part in the production will need to be available on July 18 from 9 a.m. until the end of the 3 p.m. performance.
