Young Performers' Auditions scheduled
for PCPA's upcoming production of

PeterPan

PCPA is seeking young performers for the upcoming holiday production of Peter Pan. Girls who look to be between the ages of 10 to 12 and boys who look to be between the ages of 6 to 12 will be considered.

Auditions are scheduled for Sunday, September 5 from 1 - 5pm at the Columbia Business Center, 900 E. Stowell Rd, Santa Maria, CA (behind Costco) Room #18.
No Appointments.

Young performers should be prepared to sing 16 to 32 bars of any song. Bring sheet music – no recordings – an accompanist will be provided. Children will be seen in the order they arrive.

Rehearsals for Peter Pan begin September 28. Performances run from November 4 through December 23.

PCPA is casting:

John - A young man – still with the features of a child and willing to play, but on the cusp of being a young adult. Not too tall and needs to fly. He is like Harry Potter in the first 2 books – looks to be around 10-12 years old.

Michael – He looks like the adorable little boy that everyone treats as the baby but he’s smart and sassy and fun. He needs to weigh at least 50 lbs for flying purposes – looks to be around 6-8 years old.

Jane – Beautiful young girl about to turn 11-12– full of grace and energy.

Twin – One of the “Lost boys” who looks to be around 8-11 years old. He will be matched with a tall conservatory student so shorter is better. Someone who can play “not the sharpest tool in the shed.”

All 4 young performers need to be able to master an English dialect (If cast they will be professionally coached). They should be able to fill the stage with their voice, move well, and be able to behave for long periods in rehearsal. John, Michael, and Twin will be called to rehearse often, and they will need to have a good grasp of focus. We are looking for active imaginations.

All ethnicities are encouraged to audition.

For more information call PCPA Stage Management at 928-7731 ext. 3100.
