Oink! A Pigsical is a new musical work retelling of the classic "Three Little Pigs" story, but with a twist! After a first round of staged reading and a demo recording, we are ready to take our story from concept into first performance, with the goal of applying to Fringe Festivals both the DC local area and the New York Festival Circuit. The music and lyrics are fast-paced - both requiring range, musicianship, and agility. Looking for a cast that can take us through our next semi-staged reading, regional theater festival circuits, and beyond.

OTHER INFO

CHARACTER BREAKDOWN
Paul [Tenor to A]: The youngest pig. Bookish, anxious and the real coming of age story in the plot. Extremely cautious and plan-full. He writes everything in his notebook, thinking through every step before taking action. He is a homebody and the most important thing to him in his house (which is of wood) is a room for mother.
Peter [High Baritone to E]: The middle pig. Artistic, impulsive, sensitive and quirky. He's a sensitive, artistic type - and straw is his "favorite fiber" so, naturally, he is building his house from it. Of course, he's doing more dancing and singing than building, but there's not a chance that the house will stay up anyway.
