It is Meredith Willson's "THE MUSIC MAN" and Ms. Cissell, Mr. Borquez and I are looking for a HUGE cast of Freshmen through Seniors! Please find entire cast of characters we are seeking listed below. One note: unlike most musicals, 'Music Man' has many non-singing roles of significance in the show, - but please be aware that we ask EVERYONE auditioning to sing at the auditions. Even if you think you don't sing, give it a shot - we are a very understanding, supporting group and hope that you'll find the auditions to be pleasant and easy. Please see parts below:

(brief synopsis):                             "THE MUSIC MAN"

The year: 1912. Location:  small town in Iowa, 'River City'. A charming con-man named 'Harold Hill' arrives in town and sells the people musical instruments and uniforms, to form a kids band with himself as the leader. Only trouble is, Harold Hill is a crook - he doesn't know one note from another! He collects the money and  before he can be stopped, skips town and moves on to the next small town. No cell phones or TV in 1912 and a man can do this and stay one step ahead of the law. However there is a town librarian, Marian Paroo who sees right through him from the begininng but before she can bring the law in on "Professor Hill", he targets Marian with "romance" to keep her off balance. Meanwhile, the little town LOVES Harold Hill and his influence on the town and they are not aware that he stays in town only until the uniforms and instruments arrive and he can skip with the money......how will this end????      :)

NEW ANNOUNCEMENT! As of Thursday, 23August2018:

"Hello, Fellow Thespians, for indeed that is what you are, all the world being a stage and all".

 callbacks today (Thursday 8/23) in B-1 at the following times:

                                                                                          Mr. Hunt

When you see the monologues and two-person scenes posted on the OPHS Theatre site, you may choose to  download several and please bring them with you into the first audition. These short scenes DO NOT NEED TO BE MEMORIZED. You can have them in hand when you audition. They are all very short -

                                                                             The Dining Room

                                                                                     a comedy in 2 acts

                                                                                                by

                                                                                       A.R. Gurney

"The Dining Room" opened on Broadway in the 1980s and was runner-up at that time for the Pulitzer Prize. The comedy originally calls for 3 men and 3 women and they each play 7-8 different roles. It's a great workout for the actors and actresses: (old people, children, middle aged, etc. - all played by our cast). But we however, are expanding the cast as follows: we will be casting for 6 men and 6 women and if enough of a turnout - we will double-cast and cast 12 men - 12 women.  The play is very flexible in this way, and in such a case we will perform a split run. During this weekend, the audition scenes will be posted here and on our OPHS Website, courtesy of Mrs. Schneider. Looking forward to seeing you all!

                                                                                                    Mr. Hunt
