Book by Marc Acito

SEEKING:

“Judy Garland”
Seeking a brilliant young actress in her late teens or early 20s to play Judy Garland at ages 13-16.

Judy has the energy of a pep squad and a never-say-die commitment to succeed, combined with a ready wit and a wicked sense of the absurd.

More than anything, Judy just wants to be loved and accepted for who she is.

Her vulnerability is as fragile as her self-esteem.

Dance skills, including tap are a huge plus.
