What they are looking for
A&E Productions, run by Avery Young and Elizabeth Epstein, is putting together its second cabaret, Broadway Backstabbers, an evening of songs from musical theater villains and schemers at The Green Room 42 in New York. The material includes numbers from Little Shop of Horrors, Bring It On and Into the Woods. To audition, submit a 32 bar cut of a song that fits the theme through the form in the listing by November 29. There is a rehearsal on January 5, and soundcheck and the show are both on January 9, with the show at 9:30 PM. The listing does not mention pay. It also leaves out age ranges and union status. Apply through the original listing.
Castina's tip
The listing suggests Killer Instinct, Last Midnight and Meant to Be Yours, but a less obvious pick can help you stand out if it fits the theme. Act the character's intentions as you sing, since the show centers on the moment a villain drops the mask. Record with clean audio and a good backing track. Before you commit, ask whether there is pay, and keep in mind there is only one rehearsal.
