The Davis Musical Theatre Company will be holding auditions for its Young Performers' Theatre production of "Tom Sawyer" on Monday, May 20 or Tuesday, May 21.
Set in 1840 Missouri, the show follows young Tom Sawyer and the never-ending mischief he finds himself a part of.
"The classic Mark Twain story jumps off the page and comes to life in this musical adaptation of America's favorite book," said a press release from the Davis Musical Theatre Company. "Along with best friend Huckleberry Finn and love interest Becky Thatcher, the greatest Tom Sawyer exploits are plucked from the book and plopped on the stage."
Those auditioning should bring a prepared song not from "Tom Sawyer" and sheet music with piano accompaniment. There will be cold readings.
All roles are open and any role may be performed by an actor of any gender. For this summer show, vacations are accepted as a reason to miss rehearsals, except for the week before opening (tech week).
"Tom Sawyer" will open Saturday, July 19.

The UC Davis Department of Theatre and Dance will be performing their spring dance concert "[RE]Vision" at the end of this month.
A company of over 30 student dancers will take the stage to perform a series of new works created by doctoral and undergraduate students.
"'[Re]Vision' is an invitation to dream," said Doria E. Charlson, visiting assistant professor of dance. "At this moment, where ecological, political and systemic structures are colliding with violent force, revisioning is needed and necessary. Revisioning conjures new worlds through reorientation to the spaces and relationships with which we move. This evening of movement and performance asks audiences to remain active in the call to see, and to move towards what can be made anew by reframing what exists around us."
Performances will be held May 31 and June 1 at 7 p.m. and June 2 at 2 p.m. in the Main Theatre in Wright Hall.
