Pittsfield Players Auditions For Once Upon A Mattress

 

The Pittsfield Players will hold auditions for their fall musical, Once Upon A Mattress at the Scenic Theatre, 6 Depot St., Pittsfield,  on Sunday and Monday, August 20 and 21 at 7 pm each evening. The fall show will run for two weekends, November 10, 11, 12, 17 and 18, and will be directed by Marty Williams. Auditioners will be asked to sing a song (bring your own sheet music if your song is not from the show), read from the script and do a few dance steps that we’ll teach you.

 

Once Upon A Mattress is the hilarious adult version of the story of the princess and the pea, set to music, of course. The show has music written by Mary Rodgers, book by Jay Thompson, Dean Full and Marshall Barer, who also wrote the lyrics. But if you thought you knew the story of ‘The Princess and The Pea,’ you may be in for a walloping surprise! Did you know, for instance, that Princess Winnifred actually swam the moat to reach Prince Dauntless the Drab? Or that Lady Larken’s love for Sir Harry provided a rather compelling reason that she reaches the bridal altar post haste? Or that, in fact, it wasn’t the pea at all that caused the princess a sleepless night? Carried on a wave of wonderful songs, by turns hilarious and raucous, romantic and melodic, this rollicking spin on the familiar classic of royal courtship and comeuppance provides for some side-splitting shenanigans. Chances are you’ll never look at fairy tales quite the same way again.

 

The show has principal roles for 3 women and 6 men, and a singing and dancing ensemble of ladies in waiting, knights, soldiers, servants and musicians. In other words, there are tons of good parts for potential cast members. Hope to see you at auditions!
