* AUDITIONS for Phantom The Cannon Theatre

The Cannon Theatre in Devens, MA is pleased to announce AUDITIONS for Phantom, by Kopit and Yeston! This lush version of Phantom of the Opera tells more of the back story of Erik, the troubled Phantom. Directed by Shawn Cannon (moi), with music direction by James Haupt, this beautiful musical will be a great way to show off your vocal abilities. All actors need to prepare a 32 bar song from an operetta or one using a legit voice. There will be a cold read from the script as well.
