What they are looking for
Theatre Raleigh is casting the ensemble for Jonathan Larson's Rent, directed and choreographed by Eamon Foley. They are seeking Equity singers, actors and movers for the chorus, which may include featured roles and understudying the principals: strong tenor, baritone and bass voices, plus strong belt and soprano voices. The chorus call is December 15 at the theater's rehearsal studio, first come, first served, with no advance sign up: dancers in the morning and singers in the afternoon. Bring a pop or rock song with sheet music, or jazz sneakers for the dance call, along with your headshot and resume. Rehearsals start March 15, 2027, and performances run April 7 to 25. It is paid, with a $911 weekly minimum. Apply through the original listing.
Castina's tip
Since there are no appointments, arrive before the start time: if you are not there when it begins, you will not be seen. For the dance call, warm up beforehand and wear comfortable clothes with your jazz sneakers. For the singer call, choose a pop or rock cut that shows your top range in a few bars. If you want to understudy a principal, read the breakdown in the principal call listing and mention it when you introduce yourself.
