For musicals, come to the audition prepared to sing 16 measures of a song of your choosing. Please bring sheet music for your song selection. A piano player will be available to accompany you. For musicals there may also be a simple dance audition. Because the nature of community theater we realize that actors come with a wide range of dance ability from two left feet to experienced professionals. GCP choreographers are experts at making everyone look like naturals dancing on stage. Jane Eyre Follow the classic romantic story of Jane Eyre, a young impoverished governess, who journeys to an isolated English mansion to teach the ward of the estate's enigmatic master, Rochester. The attraction between Jane and Rochester is immediate, but so are Jane's suspicions as she begins to realize that the house and its master harbor a dark secret. True to its source, this is a musical that is stuffed with big emotions - cruelty, despair, courage, forgiveness and, above all, an all-consuming love.
