This June, through generous funding provided by the Phoenix Foundation of Central Florida, we will be embarking on our very first OCPS Summer Production Series, with a production of In The Heights, directed by Alex Mendez, associate directed by Andrea Whitman, technical direction by Angel Gavillan-Rivera, on June 25-27 at Edgewater High School. We will need students to fill all areas of the production: leads, ensemble, designers, technicians, and musicians in our live orchestra. Before submitting materials using the link to the right, here are some FAQ’s:

What is the time commitment?

Rehearsals start Monday, June 1st, Monday thru Friday, 9-5. Tech week starts on Monday, June 22. And shows run June 25-27. You need to be available for all shows and rehearsals, but you may not be called for all rehearsals.

What about transportation?

You are responsible for transportation to Edgewater HS. To assist, FREE Lynx Transportation cards will be available upon request.

What do I need to submit?

Please fill out the questions on the Submission Form, including any planned absences for rehearsal days, preferred roles, etc.

• Actors / Dancers - headshot, resume, and audition recording. We want to see what you look like, so the headshot should be a well-lit, complementary solo picture of you. Think you on a good day! But it does not need to be a professional portrait. A resume should highlight any previous performing roles. And the recording needs to be you singing a short selection of your choice from an uptempo song and a ballad.
• Designers / Technicians - Select your department in order of preference. Designers - Please submit relevant materials for the design of this show.
• Instrumentalists - Please submit a recording of a short musical selection from the show, playing your chosen instrument - available in the Submission Form.
