Paliku Theatre Sets Tryouts For ‘Phantom’

Del.icio.us

Paliku Theatre will produce Phantom of the Opera as its fall musical with Ron Bright directing, and auditions are scheduled next month.

Tryouts will begin at 6 p.m. June 27 and 28 for singers and dancers age 16 and older; some should be trained in ballet. Vocal auditions will be to an accompanyist, not a capella or recorded.

Written by Andrew Lloyd Webber, the popular musical opened in 1986. It has been wildly successful throughout the world and is the longest-running musical on Broadway. The story centers around a beautiful singer and her mysterious admirer.

On the Windward Community College campus, it will run for at least four weekends starting Sept. 9. Curtain time is 7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday and 4:30 p.m. Sunday.
