SEEKING:

ENSEMBLE MEN:
30s/40s/50s. 6 versatile men to play Sonny’s wise-guys as well as various inhabitants of Calogero’s neighborhood. Looking for unique, authentic characters with strong voices (at least 1 must be a true bass-baritone and 1 must be quite heavy-set) and comedic chops – must move well

DOO-WOP GROUP
(20s/30s) 4 guys; Calogero’s best friends. Also double as various inhabitants of Calogero’s neighborhood. EXCELLENT DANCERS and SINGERS (at least 1 must be a true bass-baritone)

ENSEMBLE WOMEN
(20s/30s) 3 girls in Calogero’s neighborhood. Beautiful, funny, tough. EXCELLENT DANCERS and SINGERS
