Mountain Theatre Company looks to Broadway for the casts and crews of its fabulous 2024 season.
Mountain Theatre Company has returned from their annual spring audition tour!
Executive Artistic Director Scott Daniel and Company Manager Emanuel Carrero traveled to New York City at the end of February to begin to cast MTC’s 2024 Season.
They welcomed over 1,000 professional actors, singers, and dancers to be considered for roles in Mountain Theatre Company’s upcoming productions of Grease, Catch Me If You Can, The Burnt Part Boys, and Home for the Holidays. Callbacks were then hosted for hundreds of these performers as Daniel and Carrero searched to find the very best talent to bring to Highlands and the MTC stage this year.
And that doesn’t include the many video submissions they will also be viewing from actors across the country.
Daniel and Carrero were joined in New York City by Erin Leigh Knowles, a familiar face to MTC audiences. Knowles led the dance call portion of the auditions, while Daniel and Carrero evaluated not only the talent and form of the dancers, but the speed and accuracy with which they learned the choreography.
MTC is also in search of professional candidates to fill many technical positions in the upcoming theatre season. Candidates will be considered for a variety of roles including costume designers, sound designers, lighting designers, wardrobe supervisors, stage managers, audio engineers, stitchers, painters, and carpenters. These artists will join MTC production teams to bring the world of each show magically to life on stage.
Mountain Theatre Company will contract over 100 professional artists who will travel to Highlands, NC over the course of the 2024 season, making MTC one of the largest employers in Highlands this year.
The cast and creative team of Grease, which opens on June 5, will begin arriving as early as mid-May. As these talented professionals from across the country begin to arrive in town over the coming weeks, be sure to welcome them to the Highlands-Cashiers Plateau!
