About the show:
Miss Helen's Weird West Cabaret is a one hour musical by Paul Shapera. Ostensibly set in the fictional frontier town of Lost Hollow where our cast put on a musical review recounting tales of Lost Hollow and its residents. However the facade begins to crack due to the growing dissonance between the cast and the roles they are forced to play, in the process highlighting the racism, homophobia, and general bigotry at play in this setup, and the lack of control the marginalized have over the narratives of our own lives more broadly.
The full concept album of the show can be found here.
Rehearsals will be in August with tech and performances the first week of September from Monday Aug. 31st to Sunday Sept. 6th.
All positions will be paid a stipend for their work.
Lighting Designer Stipend: $400
Choreographer Stipend: $450
Intimacy Coordinator Stipend: $375
Once again, interested parties should submit resumes to [email protected]

We look forward to hearing from you!
