Bye Bye Birdie

Audition Dates

Friday and Saturday April 4th and 5th 6-8 PM

Auditions Held at Laporte Little Theatre

A loving send-up of the 1950s, small-town America, teenagers, and rock & roll. Teen heartthrob Conrad Birdie has been drafted, so he chooses All-American girl Kim MacAfee for a very public farewell kiss. Featuring a tuneful high-energy score, plenty of great parts for teens, and a hilarious script, Bye Bye Birdie is sure to thrill all audiences.

This is a large cast musical. We are looking for an adult chorus, a large teen chorus and there are many featured roles and the link to the character breakdown can be found here.
