We are hosting an open call audition for the role of Will Parker in our June production of Oklahoma! We are searching for someone 21 years old or older, and for the audition we ask that you prep a 60 second vocal selection, and be prepared to learn a short vocal cut from the show and cold read. The auditions will be held from 7p-8p on Tuesday, April 7th at St. Paul’s in Chelsea. If you have questions, or are interested in attending, please email chelseaareaplayers@gmail.com
The next member of our team serves as our Assistant Director, as well as our Props Designer. Let us introduce you to Anna Carter! Anna has been involved with Chelsea Areas Players for over a decade as a performer, assistant director, stage manager, and summer camp counselor. Currently, she is an undergraduate student at the University of Michigan studying both Communication and Media and Cultural Anthropology, hoping to continue her passion for the performing arts and theatre into her professional future. After performing in her own Michigan production of Oklahoma! this past year, she's excited to step into a different role with new faces and a deeply familiar story! She hopes this classic musical can remind audiences of the power of community, family, and the love for one another that we both share freely and protect fiercely. The last night of auditions are tonight! Audition information for Oklahoma! can be found at https://chelseaareaplayers.org/
