Grease 2 Auditions!
Funhouse Lounge is excited to announce auditions for its upcoming show "Grease 2"
It’s 2 years after the events of “Grease”, and Rydell High has a new crop of seniors entering a new decade; the 60s! Motorcycles, bowling, a bomb shelter, teen hormones, air raid drills, a talent show, and sex-ed class all combine to make this cult classic sizzle. Based on the 1982 film featuring Michelle Pfeiffer in her first starring role, this is a full-blown musical with several big group dance numbers and 13 catchy songs.
Auditions will be held on Saturday, July 22nd from 1-4pm and Sunday, July 23rd from 2-4pm, with callbacks during the following week.
Please have ready a light-hearted monologue (around 1 minute), as well as 32 bars of a song. Song should be rock’n’roll, not musical theater. Bring sheet music, there will be an accompanist present.
