HMT Open Auditions Start July 31 for Brigadoon Concert

SARATOGA SPRINGS —  Home Made Theater will hold open auditions for a fundraising concert of the classic Lerner and Loewe musical Brigadoon. This production, directed by JJ Buechner with musical direction by Richard Cherry, will be a concert staging performed in Congress Park on Sunday, Sept. 10.

The auditions will be held on Monday, July 31 and Tuesday,  Aug. 1, starting at 6:30 p.m. at Home Made Theater’s headquarters at the Wilton Mall – near the Saratoga Hospital annex, across the hall from Home Goods.

Lerner and Loewe’s Brigadoon is an enchanting and beloved Broadway musical. Featuring such standards as “Almost Like Being in Love,” “Come to Me, Bend To Me,” and “Heather on the Hill,” Brigadoon is a timeless, romantic classic which vividly brings the mystery and magic of the Scottish highlands to life. 

Rehearsals will be Monday through Wednesday from 6:30 – 9:30 p.m. starting on Aug. 7.  

For the audition: prepare 16 bars of an up-tempo Broadway song. Bring your own sheet music in your key; a pianist will be provided. No a cappella singing. Bring a current photo (cannot be returned) and a resume. Be prepared to list all potential rehearsal conflicts. Video submissions will be accepted for those unable to attend the live auditions until July 30.
