Phantom of the Op'ry Auditions

Barn Players, Inc. are proud to announce auditions for...


The Phantom of the Op'ry: The Musical
Tuesday, June 26th 6:00-7:00pmWednesday, June 27th, 6:00-7:00pmPublic Meeting Room, Miles City Public Library

21 parts are available for junior-high and up actors and actresses. Please bring a short musical piece to perform (NON-singing parts are also available); parts range from large to small. 

Performance Dates: August 17-19.

"Phantom" is a musical comedy-parody with lots of opportunities for laughter, physical comedy, silly songs, fancy costumes,and much more!

Forget Broadway! Forget Paris! This musical restaging of Gaston Leroux’s famous mystery beats them all for laughs. The flaky Op’ry House is located in Skunk Creek, Nevada. There’s fun aplenty as the phantom laughingly makes a star of "too good to be true" Christine Swansong, who dreams of a musical career. But star attraction Carlotta Barracuda will stop at nothing to see that she doesn’t get it. However, the spooky phantom’s goal is to see that Christine will replace Carlotta... or else! What is the phantom’s dark secret? Will he strike again? Musical show stoppers add to the intensive spark of this show, including "I Enjoy Being a Ghoul," "Absent With Leave" and "Patrons of the Arts."

Please spread the word on auditions to anyone who might be interested. If the listed audition times do not work for you, please contact Director Hannah Nash (406-951-0560, barnplays(AT)gmail.com) and we can make alternative audition arrangements.

Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland Tickets on Sale

Tickets are now available for the Barn Players’ Spring Children's Show “Alice's Adventures in Wonderland”; four opportunities to catch the curiosity:  Friday, March 9^th at 7:00pm, Saturday, March 10^th at 2:00pm and 7:00pm, and Sunday, March 11^th at 2:00pm at the V.A. Auditorium.

Follow Alice down the rabbit hole in this stage adaptation of Lewis Carroll’s classic children’s story. Things get curioser and curioser for Alice as she meets many strange things in Wonderland: the Caterpillar, Tweedledee and Tweedledum, Humpty Dumpty, the Walrus and the Carpenter (and Oysters!), talking flowers, and much more.

The White Queen and Red Chess Queen invite Alice to be a queen with them, but she must go on a journey through the Chess squares to find her crown. On this bizarre journey Alice joins a Caucus Race with the Dodo, Mouse, Lory and Mock Turtle; tries to have tea with the Mad Hatter, Dormouse and March Hare at a most peculiar tea party; attempts to play croquet with flamingos and hedgehogs; recites poetry; grows, shrinks, and becomes quite lost.

“Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” is appropriate for all ages, and starts the Barn Players’ Spring 2012 season with a heavy dose of Silly.

Children's shows sell out annually, so the Barn strongly encourages the public to purchase tickets as soon as possible. Please contact (406)951-0560 or barnplays@gmail.com to purchase tickets. If anyone in your party requires special accommodations, please let us know in advance so we may make their theatre experience as comfortable as possible.
