Auditions are announced:
Billy Elliot auditions
Argenta Community Theater, 405 Main St., North Little Rock, will hold auditions for the musical Billy Elliot, 5-9 p.m. Jan. 25 and 2-6 p.m. Jan. 26. Prepare 16 bars of a song that showcases your vocal range — either from the actual show or with the same feel as music from the show — and provide sheet music for the accompanist who will be provided for the audition. The audition will also call for readings from the script and a dance call. All roles require some singing; performers of all genders, races and ethnicities are welcome to audition. Visit argentacommunitytheater.org/auditions for a character breakdown; email Casting@ArgentaCommunityTheater.org for an audition appointment. Production dates, April 22-May 2, include two daytime school shows. Rehearsals start March 22 but dance/vocal rehearsals for some performers may start earlier.

Out of curiosity, I visited the Argenta Community Theater website to see what the character breakdown looked like that the theater was providing to prospective cast members. For a small community theater, it was perhaps the best such page I've seen -- a well thought out and very detailed description of what they're looking for in each character.

They have announced a new season, with PIPPIN being this summer's production, and no BETM. Hopefully it will be considered for a future year.
