Auditions for Chocolate Musical Set

Wed, Jul 06, 2011

Want to sing about chocolate? Auditions for ode to it are scheduled at the Palace.

Auditions for male and female singers for the fall cabaret Ode to Chocolate will be held Monday, July 18 starting at 7p.m. at The Palace Theater.

Ode to Chocolate is a light-hearted cabaret featuring numerous favorite melodies (some straight and some parodies) that have the sweet smell of chocolate laced in their meaning.  Songs include: Candy Man, Lollipop, You’re the One that I Want, I Got You Babe, Some Enchanted Evening, Hakuna Matata, Can’t Take My Eyes Off Of You, Mama Mia and People.  

Maveret Umstead, musical director, singer, and Patricia von Mechow will be co-directing.

The musical production Ode to Chocolate will be staged Friday, September 23 at 7:30 p.m. as a prelude to the Hamilton Chocolate Festival Sept. 24.

Rehearsals begin mid-August on a scattered schedule, with serious commitment starting September 13, two weeks prior to the show date.

Singers are asked to bring their own material and be prepared to sing a capella, and possibly in chorus with other singers auditioning. Contact von Mechow, at The Palace by calling 824-1420 or e-mail, pvm@twcny.rr.com.
