Auditions
scheduled for MCT’s Snow White & the Seven Dwarfs
Darke County Center for the Arts is once again presenting their annual
week-long Missoula Children's Theatre residency offering youngsters the
opportunity to participate in a full-scale musical theatre production;
this year's show is Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Auditions for Snow
White will be held on Monday, July 30 from 10 a.m. until 12 noon;
rehearsals continue throughout the week, culminating in two
performances on Saturday, August 4 at 3 p.m. and 7 p.m. All activities
take place at Henry St. Clair Memorial Hall in Greenville.
All students entering grades 1 through 12 are encouraged to audition
for one of the approximately 60 roles available; there is no charge for
participation in this production. Those wanting to try out should
arrive by the scheduled starting time and remain for the entire
session. Some of the cast members will be asked to stay for the first
rehearsal which begins 30 minutes after the casting announcement at the
end of auditions. Rehearsals continue daily from 10 a.m. until 12 noon
and 12:30 until 2:30throughout the week. Although not all cast members
are needed at every session, those auditioning should have a clear
schedule for the entire week.
Among the roles to be cast are Snow White, her friends Phineas, Foxy,
and Fernando, the Queen, and the Seven Dwarfs. Other characters include
the Magic Mirror, the King, Forest Animals, Black Forest Creatures,
Bats, Henchmen, and Students. Assistant Directors who will aid in
rehearsals throughout the week will also be chosen. No advance
preparation is required for this group audition, but youngsters should
be aware that paying close attention to the MCT Tour Directors'
instructions is essential to a successful audition.
The residency by Missoula Children's Theatre is made possible by a
grant from Darke County Endowment for the Arts. DCCA also receives
funding from local businesses, foundations, and the Ohio Arts Council,
and is supported by membership donations. Tickets to the show cost $5;
to reserve tickets for either Saturday performance of Snow White and
the Seven Dwarfs or for further details regarding auditions and the
