Drama has held its auditions for The Boyfriend and has the cast list ready and rehearsals have commenced! Well... We do have an issue with the fact that only 7 boys auditioned and the play needs 8 boys to play the male roles, plus an understudy for all the male parts. But we gotta make do with what we have now until we get two more boys in cause we only have till mid-March when the musical opens. Marina auditioned and got a part as the French maid, Hortense; a role she really wanted. She has her own song and gets to sing in a French accent. Practicing already, she sounds amazing.
Okay, for those who have no clue what this musical is, The Boyfriend takes place in carefree French Riviera in the 1920's. It focuses around the girls of the Villa Caprice and their, well kinda obvious as the title says, boyfriends.
I've only read the plot on Wikipedia as I've only heard of this musical a few months ago and have never seen it. But from the sounds and looks of it I've seen on Youtube, it's a very cute musical. And a long one too; Three acts.
We still need A LOT of crew for this musical which I'm hoping we get more people to sign up in the next week or two. I signed up for costume crew and hopefully we get to do some fun stuff with the costumes with it being set in the 1920's.
As of now, Miss Brown wants us to go public straight away and have posters up and what not. I may have poster board and nothing to do this weekend so I've volunteered myself to making a poster or two for the front of the PAC.
So hopefully in these next two months we make this a great musical.
Time to go back to watching Nostalgia Critic.
XOXO,
