Posted: 1/2/05 at 11:53pmI am thinking about trying out for this play. Is it a good one. Are there good parts for teenagers? If so what are they?

It's a cute play. Is it community theater? They could cast a teenager as the leads, lady larkin and some others if you're right for the roles...cute show, nothing amazing, but entertaining

Posted: 1/3/05 at 12:39amWhere are you doing this play? If its in a place where all the auditioners are teenagers, (like at a high school) then YES there are parts for teenagers, and even if its anywhere else, like at a community theatre, if your an older teen, like 16-19, you could probably be cast a princess or lady in waiting, and depending on who else auditions and the eligable age range, a bigger, even lead, role.

I think it's a lovely musical
Very cute.
There are no roles that are SPECIFICALLY for teens, but it would be POSSIBLE for teens to play Prince Dauntless, Princess Fred, Sir Harry, Lady Larken, The Minstrel, the Jester, etc.
It depends on the directorial/casting concept.
In any case, there are sure to be roles in the chorus for teens.
Definitely audition!
It's a fun show!
