Auditions Set for Farmington Hills Production of 'Camp Rock'

Open auditions will be held in January for Farmington Hills Youth Theatre's production of  “Camp Rock – The Musical,” which features a wide variety of roles at all performance levels.

Newcomers and experienced actors alike are welcome to try out on Saturday and Sunday, Jan. 25 and 26, between noon and 5 p.m. at the Costick Center, 28600 W. Eleven Mile Road. Participants may drop in at any time during the designated hours. 

Roles in two large casts are open to residents and non-residents.

Auditions are easy and friendly, and no preparation is necessary. Participants are asked to bring a recent school photo; all other materials are supplied. Some preliminary materials for review will be available beginning Jan. 8 at www.fhgov.com/YouthTheatre.

“Camp Rock – The Musical” relates the challenges of a group of talented kids who face a showdown with a competing camp. The show follows a highly successful production of Disney's "Tarzan". 

“Our packed audiences agreed that ‘Tarzan’ was our best Youth Theatre show ever,” said Rachel Timlin, the city's Cultural Arts coordinator. “We are looking forward to continuing the same high quality as we present ‘Camp Rock’.”

Performance dates will be spread over two weekends: April 25, 26, and 27, and May 3 and 4.
