CASTING CALL for STAGED READING of a NEW MUSICAL
(Non-equity actors only)
IMMORTAL the Musical is a story of hope, redemption, and second chances in the same music style as PHANTOM OF THE OPERA, WICKED, & LES MISÉRABLES.
SHORT BLURB:
England 1792. For 300 years, an immortal who survives on blood has traveled the world to escape the family hunting him. Phineas, the current hunter, injures Lucas and loses him in the night. Thirsty and weakened enough to break his cardinal rule (never take a victim near home), Lucas attends the neighboring baron’s ball and meets Justine. His silent heart beats for the first time in centuries. If he is capable of love, is he capable of redemption? And will Justine’s uncle Phineas discover his identity and end him before he can find out?
