ABOUT THE SHOW
:

Forbidden Zone: Live in the Sixth Dimension is the live stage-musical adaptation of the 1982 cult film classic scored by Danny Elfman and directed by Richard Elfman. It's a bawdy, sexy sci-fi/fantasy romp through Hell and back. Imagine "Alice in Wonderland" filtered through a surrealistic cartoon lens complete with sex, demons and talking chickens. A vast array of musical styles are explored throughout the play, from New Wave to American Jazz Classics. We are looking for any and all ethnicities, genders, and types of dynamic performers.
 

THERE IS NUDITY IN THIS PROJECT.
 

AUDITION REQUIREMENTS:

A one-minute dramatic monologue as your favorite cartoon character; 16 bars (about one minute) of an American Standard from the 30’s or 40’s (bring sheet music); and be prepared to move as an animal of your choice… we will tell you what to do. Be prepared to have fun and to commit to zaniness.
