Music for Sixties Kicks Call Back Auditions
Thanks for your patience with this process. For the Monday callbacks, we'll be learning two songs, Joy To The World and Happy Together. We'll teach backup parts to everyone. Then the men will take turns singing the lead vocals with others on backups. Sheet music will be provided. Men, please learn the lead parts ahead of time. You should sing them as they are sung in the original recordings, although we will change keys if needed. We will also be teaching you some simple choreography, so please dress accordingly.

Auditions: at State Theater Monday night March 8th
Rehearsals begin: May 22, 2010
Performances: June 24 - July 31, 2010
Auditioning for: 3 women and 2 men who can sing the songs of the sixties.
