From the
composing team that brought us RAGTIME, ONCE ON THIS ISLAND and A
MAN OF NO IMPORTANCE. MY FAVORITE
YEAR continues to be one of the best kept musical
secrets around. Based on the hit movie of the same name (Starring Peter O'Toole
and Mark Linn Baker), this delightful musical truly captures the nostalgia
of 1954 using the fictitious "King Kaiser Comedy Cavalcade" as a stand in for
Sid Ceasar's "Your Show of Shows".
Beck's
production will be directed by Bill Roudebush ("Lies and Legends" and
last season's award winning "Equus"). Musical Direction by Larry
Goodpaster and Choreography by Martin Cespedes. MY
FAVORITE YEAR will have a four weekend
run opening May 16th and closing June 7th. Rehearsals will begin circa
April 8th.
The role
of Alan Swann has been cast (Matthew Wright), but ALL other roles are
open. One additional AEA contract is available.
All other non-union roles are paid a stipend for those 18 years of age and
older.
Director
Bill Roudebush is looking for actors who sing (and some who move well) in the
age range of 16 thru 75. This is a GREAT opportunity for character
actors. Not all need to sing like angels.

character breakdown.
