Actors should be available during the month of April for a couple of dates (a reading, media/promo, music recording).  The bulk of rehearsals will be in June.  This is a musical that will take place during the Fringe Festival.   Participants will be sharing equally in all the profits from the box office.

Nobody's Idol is a musical parody that takes place on the set of a famous televised singing competition.  The reality show boasts a line-up of afflicted people with a song in their heart. Not only do all the characters on this show have a problem, they're also going to sing about it and then compete for the grandest prize of them all: a lifetime supply of fame.

Fame (m) ageless High tenor (pop r&b style)
