Fringe Benefits


For the forseable future, I intend to use this site to blog about the progress of my 2006 Twin-Cities Fringe Festival show Google: The Musical. Soooo... here we go!

Google: The Musical is an entirely original musical dark-comedy being introduced for this year’s Fringe Festival. This will be huge and challenging. We promise – it’s not JUST another silly fringe “musical.” The show is a fable about the dangers of information ubiquity. The music is entirely of the electronic persuasion – there will be a DJ on stage the whole time. Oh yeah, and zombies.

Auditions will be held Sunday June 11 and Monday June 12. Experience not a necessity – just show us that you are willing to take some risks. ETHNICITY STRONGLY ENCOURAGED! The following roles have specific requirements.

• Elder Woman (50+) – A kind mentor with a curious past. This woman must be capable of singing and willing to dance in a hip-hop style (will teach).

• 3 woman and 3 men (Any age/shape/) – Relatively strong dance and singing. Multiple-character roles.

• Video game prodigy – If this title makes your thumbs tingle, audition.

Also looking for a Stage Manager and Video Guru.

Please email shammond@mn.rr.com for more information, or call 612.991.5204. If available, please include a resume/headshot.
