AUDITION FOR MAYOR SHINN
Mayor Shinn takes himself very seriously, feels very self-important, and mixes up words regularly without realizing it. He says everything with a great deal of confidence. End at "Credentials!" NO SINGING.
AUDITION FOR MRS. PAROO
Mrs. Paroo is Marian and Winthrop's Mother. She has a thick Irish accent and a huge personality! I can't wait to see some of you audition for this wonderful role! She has lines and a song.

MRS Paroo's Lines

Oh! This is a fun part!! Bring your sense of humor and sass. Confidence is a must! Say lines, then sing.
Practice with Mrs. Crane: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMfRPKghVdU
TOMMY DJILAS AND ZANEETA SHINN AUDITION:
We are looking for "character" choices here! They both have a phrase they always say. Tommy says, "Jeely Kly." Zaneeta says, "E-gads." They are young teens in love. Try using different voice-styles until you find one that really stands out and helps us envision you in this role. Being good at dance/movement a plus for this role.
AUDITION FOR CHARLIE COWELL
This traveling salesman HATES Harold Hill and is just a bit of a cad. Has to smooch Marian, so don't audition for this part if you won't/can't kiss on stage. Acting skills a must.
AUDITION FOR MARCELLUS WASHBURN
The only person who knows the truth about Harold. He is a loyal friend and a great personality! Must be an awesome performer!
