AUDITIONS
The Pin Up Girls
by James Hindman and Jeffrey Lodin
A musical
Plot: From The Andrew Sisters to hip-hop! From World War I to Afghanistan. The Pin-Up Girls sing a cavalcade of hits inspired by letters home from our troops overseas! While singing at their local VFW hall, Leanne and her friends stumble upon a huge stash of letters that go back a hundred years. Inspired by what they find— funny, romantic, heartbreaking, and… sexy— the ladies put on a show that celebrates the guys and gals who fight to defend our country.
PERFORMANCES WILL BE ON THE FOLLOWING 8 DATES: Sept 13, 14, 19, 20, 21, 26, 27, 28 with all Friday and Saturday shows starting at 7pm and all Sunday shows starting at 3pm.. There will also be a mandatory dress rehearsal on Friday, September 12, at 7pm.
REHEARSALS WILL BE SCHEDULED AT THE CONVENIENCE OF ACTORS. THUS, IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT YOU KNOW THE DATES/TIMES THAT YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO REHEARSE BETWEEN JUNE 1 AND SEPTEMBER 11. This includes all days of the week from 9am to 10pm.
ROLES are available for four singers (3 female, 1 male) between the ages of 20 and 40. Acting and some dancing will be required. They are:
LEANNE – Ringleader of the group. Wears her heart on her sleeve. Her grandfather ran this VFW hall
for 26 years. Leanne manages her family’s printing company, American Graphics, and is very good at
using her passion and enthusiasm to persuade others.
MEGAN – Party girl. A bit of a flirt. Ex-prom queen who is always looking for a good time. Very outgoing.
Graduated from Beauty School and is now a ‘beauty consultant.’
DANA – Teaches music at a catholic middle school. Reserved with a childlike innocence. Extremely
excited to be performing for a room full of people who are over twelve years old! She arranges all the
music. Plays ukulele if possible.
JOEL – Brother to Leanne. Hipster with a smart-alecky attitude and a great sense of humor. Likes being
the center of attention. When a member of the all-girl group goes into labor, Joel is thrust into the show with
only one day of rehearsal! ‘What could possibly go wrong?!’
