Welcome to LLTs summer auditions! Long Lake Theater is located in Park Rapids, Minnesota. It’s a bustling summer spot with lots of cabins, lake homes and tourism. The theater space is within a remodeled church built in 1890 and hosts approx. 80 guests.
Auditions are for shows that rehearse in the Minneapolis area then travel up north for performances. We cannot provide housing during the rehearsal period so please do not submit if you do not reside in the Twin Cities area.
This fantastic family-favorite musical was a huge hit at the Minnesota Fringe festival some years back, coming second in our venue to Buckets and Tap Shoes for attendance, in the top 10 for the overall festival, and moved forward with encore performances at STAGES blackbox theater. We are thrilled to bring it back to the stage with a new cast this summer and hope you'll be part of the fun!
Thank you for your interest. We can’t wait to meet you!
SHOW TITLE: Hansel & Gretel
DESCRIPTION: Standing at her mother’s grave, Gretel promises to be strong and care for the family. When Erna swoops in and tries to take control, Hansel and Gretel find themselves lost in unfamiliar woods, wondering if their father will ever return. Colorful birds, leather clad wolves a living forest, dancing gingerbread cookies and a witch who would enjoy a good pot of stew all stir the storyline of this timeless classic. We can’t wait to share this story of love, faith and the power of family.
CASTING NEEDS: Well-behaved children ages 7 and above through adult. Strong singers/actors/movers who can tell a story well through song. Adults MUST enjoy working with and leading youth performers as there will be some in this show. Roles and music are plentiful. Soaring sopranos, quirky birds, cool wolves… adorable children! Full cast breakdown available upon submission. (Stipends will be offered to some of the leading adult actors, but meals, lodging and travel will be taken care of during performance weekends for all. We wish we could pay everyone, as you deserve it!)
