Requirements
Each audition will be comprised of 3 parts (more important details and explanations in your Audition Packet):

  1. MUSIC: Please prepare 32 bars of a Stephen Sondheim song that is NOT from the show. Please bring your own TRACK – we will have a system set up to play music from your phone, MP3 player or a CD. If you would prefer to bring your own Accompanist you may (a piano is available, but we will not provide an accompanist). We may also have you sing scales with our Music Director to check your range.
  2. SIDE READS: Pre-selected sections of the script (sides) will be sent by email. Please take some time with these – you definitely do not need to memorize them, but each should give you a chance to show us what YOU can bring to the script. We will likely ask you to perform more than one. Brief character descriptions will be included in the Audition Packet for your reference, but should be used as a jumping off point – not where your character begins and ends.
  3. MOVEMENT AUDITION:: Everyone will be asked to learn and perform a short choreographed/Movement number – Please wear clothes and shoes you can move in (bare feet will not be permitted).

Headshots and resumes appreciated but not required.
Note: Performers must be 18+ to audition for this show.

More information & character descriptions can be found at the signup genius link below!

Walk-ins welcome and will be seen as quickly as possible.

Lakeview United Church of Christ [Maineville]

Directed by Corey Nieman
Music direction by Katie Personke
Choreography by Christine Steele

Cast: Matt Lovell as Father, Ian Herbert as Adam, Ashley Herbert as Eve, Matthew Rebhun as Cain/Japheth, Logan Campbell as Abel/Ham, Ava Hartmann as Young Cain, Elise Hartmann as Young Abel, Paul Gerwe as Seth/Shem, Erich Geoppinger as Noah, Nicole Forbus as Mama Noah, Megan Herbert as Yonah, Amy Haake as Aphra, Nicole Gerwe as Aysha & Megan Herbert as Snake

From musical theatre greats, Stephen Schwartz and John Caird, comes a joyous and inspirational musical about parents, children and faith… not to mention centuries of unresolved family business!

Adam, Eve, Noah and the “Father” who created them deal with the headstrong, cataclysmic actions of their respective children. The show ultimately delivers a bittersweet, but inspiring, message: that “the hardest part of love… is letting go.” – MTIShows.com
