The Cat’s Meow is proud to present its first annual “Broadway by Candlelight”. Auditions will be by appointment on the following days:Friday, November 13
Sunday, November 15
With Callbacks as necessary
To audition, you must be 16+ (preferably can drive yourself) and both an impressive soloist and someone who can sing harmony in a group or duet. I am unsure how many people I will cast. It will genuinely depend on what I think the best blend will be.
“Broadway by Candlelight”, which was hugely successful in Atlanta and became an annual Valentine's Day event, is a musical in honor of love, but with a twist. All different types of love are represented - romantic love, of course, but also sisterly love, love for a pet, etc. See "Times Like This" and "The Phone Call" from "Lucky Stiff", for example (and then hopefully come to see the show in our black box next year!). Performers will be in black tie (ladies in black evening gowns and white opera gloves and gentlemen in tuxedos), and the entire production will be performed - you guessed it - entirely by candlelight.
For auditions, please prepare a song that shows off your range and is appropriate for the show. Bonus points for clever songs about a non-romantic kind of love! I will also have you learn the harmony for a duet. The sheet music will be sent when you make your audition appointment.
The show will be cast in November with the intention that the performers work on their music on their own and show up to rehearsals in January with everything memorized and ready to go. This will help us keep rehearsals to a minimum - I am hopeful that we can put the show up in approximately 4 rehearsals total, but that’s why it’s very important that auditioners be able to learn music on their own (with demo vocals I will provide) and/or with help from their vocal coach.

I can’t wait to see what everyone comes up with. This is truly one of the funnest shows I have ever produced, and I am very excited about it being the first show performed in our soon-to-be black box theatre.
