People need to bring at least 32 bars of music of your choice, please bring hard copies of your music so our accompanist can play. We will vocalize everyone and have a dance audition that will be taught day off. Call backs information will be given at the auditions.
WE ARE LOOKING FOR:
Dancer’s who can sing and are preferably human and capable of telling a story/empathy. Being a part of this show is going to be more than being a part of West Side Story, it’s going to be telling the story that is as old as time and help show our community that we all have a part to play in making our community a better, more inviting and space to live.
HOW WE WILL CAST:
We will cast 32-38 people. The Jets will be cast as predominantly white or light skinned individuals and the Sharks will be cast as Hispanic and NonHispanic Black or Indigenous people of color. We are highlighting facts, America has a race problem and part of that are people who “pass” and how people can graduate or lose privilege. We will be discussing much of this throughout the course of the show, if you’d like to be involved, and have more questions please email me at .

SYNOPSIS:
The musical blends Victor Hugo’s original 1831 novel with the beloved 1996 Disney animated film. Unlike the movie, the stage version is more dramatic and mature, leaning closer to Hugo’s darker themes while retaining the sweeping Alan Menken/Stephen Schwartz score. Set in 15th-century Paris, the story revolves around Quasimodo, the deformed but kind-hearted bell-ringer of Notre Dame Cathedral, who longs for freedom beyond the bells and towers. His guardian, Archdeacon Dom Claude Frollo, is torn between religious devotion and forbidden desire. When Quasimodo encounters the compassionate and spirited Esmeralda, their lives intertwine with that of the dashing soldier Captain Phoebus, leading to a struggle of love, freedom, faith, and morality which is set against the grandeur and tragedy of Notre Dame.

SYNOPSIS:
The musical blends Victor Hugo’s original 1831 novel with the beloved 1996 Disney animated film. Unlike the movie, the stage version is more dramatic and mature, leaning closer to Hugo’s darker themes while retaining the sweeping Alan Menken/Stephen Schwartz score. Set in 15th-century Paris, the story revolves around Quasimodo, the deformed but kind-hearted bell-ringer of Notre Dame Cathedral, who longs for freedom beyond the bells and towers. His guardian, Archdeacon Dom Claude Frollo, is torn between religious devotion and forbidden desire. When Quasimodo encounters the compassionate and spirited Esmeralda, their lives intertwine with that of the dashing soldier Captain Phoebus, leading to a struggle of love, freedom, faith, and morality which is set against the grandeur and tragedy of Notre Dame.
