FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Gemini Children’s Theater Announces Auditions for “Little Mermaid Pollution Solution”

Pittsburgh, McKees Rocks – Gemini Theater is holding auditions for Little Mermaid Pollution Solution, on Sunday, March 5th from 6:30 – 9:00 pm and Wednesday, March 8th from 6:30 – 9:00pm.

Actors must have minimal conflicts with rehearsal schedule to be considered for casting.

Gemini Theater will be holding auditions for “Little Mermaid Pollution Solution,” our final production of the 2022-2023 season. 

Originally written in 2010 by Lani Cerveris Cataldi for performance by Creative Spirit Productions, this full-stage production will be a world premiere for the Gemini Theater Company.  This show is being used with special permission by Lani Cerveris Cataldi.

“The little mermaid has come back to the sea to visit her father. She has not been back in the water for so long, and she invites her friends in the audience to become sea creatures so they can visit as well. Not long after Aria’s arrival under the sea, Anemone, the Sea Witch, plans to take over the underwater kingdom by polluting all the waters and driving the sea life away. She and her feisty sidekicks think they have a great plan, not realizing that water pollution is no laughing matter.”

This show is being produced in observance of Earth Day on April 22.

We are casting all roles for this show.  Student actors 10+ may audition for this show. We will be casting approximately 7 – 8 total characters: all sea creatures. This is an interactive musical, so improvisation and working with children is important. Actors should prepare a 1 – 2 minute, upbeat contemporary song for their audition.
Cold readings will be available to peruse at your arrival.

Gemini Theater Company is a 501c (3) non-profit theater producing original shows and/or adaptations.  Characters are depicted based on our imagination and not from popular animated characters. Gemini Theater welcomes actors of all backgrounds, race, ethnicity, gender and body types to audition for our productions. Gemini Theater strives to be an inclusive and safe environment for all.
