Musical auditions to take place at end of the month

The Mt. Hood Community College Theater Department will holding auditions for its musical “Snoopy!!!” on Nov. 28, 29 and 30.

Director Jennifer Hunter said all students are encouraged to audition even if “they may not consider themselves music or theater students.” People tend to surprise themselves during auditions, she said.

Hunter said the play will contain 12-15 musical numbers.
There will be cold readings of the script, musical performances and a movement exercise, Hunter said. She said it is important to be available for all three auditions.

Hunter is casting eight scripted roles and a chorus.
“It’s a very flexible cast,” she said, adding that the ideal cast would consist of 15-20 people.

The cast list will be posted on the callboard in the theater department by Dec. 2. Rehearsals will begin Sunday through Thursday from 5-8 p.m.

“The stage can be scary. I do my best to make it a safe environment to try new things,” said Hunter.
