[Choir] Auditions for Tomfoolery

[David Zimmerman]

Hi All,

There are two sets of auditions that may be of interest to you. See below
for Tomfoolery audition details, and I'll send a second email out about the
Stevens One Act Festival. Feel free to forward either/both on to others in
the Stevens community who may be interested in performing.

Thanks!

-Dave

 

Theta Alpha Phi, in conjunction with DeBaun Center for Performing Arts,
presents TOMFOOLERY on October 12 and 13 at 8pm.

Tomfoolery is a look into the witty, wicked, offbeat and thoroughly twisted
world of famed satirical songwriter Tom Lehrer. In concerts, television
appearances and a series of now-classic recordings, the Harvard-educated
math professor delighted millions of fans during the 1950's and 60's with
his dry, cynical but good-humored attacks on the A-bomb, racism, pollution,
pornography, the military, the boy scouts and, of course, mathematics.
Nothing is sacred in this hysterical revue featuring such Lehrer favorites
as "Poisoning Pigeons In The Park," "When You Are Old And Grey," "The
Masochism Tango," "The Old Dope Peddler," "The Vatican Rag" and an
unforgettable Gilbert and Sullivan-esque recitation of the table of
elements, linked together with his own inimitable concert patter. 

For a sample of the music in the show, check out my personal space:

All Stevens students/alumni/staff are welcome to audition for the show, with
rehearsals being held on weekends until tech week. Tomfoolery will be
directed by David Zimmerman, with musical direction by Joe Manfredonia and
choreography by Kathy Imperial.

 

ONE audition will be held on TUESDAY, August 28 from 7-8pm at DeBaun
Auditorium. Please prepare 32 bars of an uptempo song (preferably musical
theater) and bring sheet music. If you are unable to attend and still
interested, email david.zimmerman at stevens.edu to schedule an alternate
date/time. Any questions? Email david.zimmerman at stevens.edu
