Modern Family: The Musical Auditions

Yes, Modern Family: The Musical is getting close to having our auditions! We, as a directing team are so excited to be casting YOU (yes, YOU) in the PERFECT ROLE!!! For Auditions, you will need to prepare a 60 second song, we would prefer a musical theatre song, and karaoke style. You will be auditioning in groups of five, in front of the group of five and the directors. When you are not auditioning, you will be in the "waiting room" also known as the lobby. The Directors are planning for each group to take about 10-15 minutes, each person will take 1 minute, 1x5=5 minutes, plus a SMALL dance audition (NOTHING to worry about) = 10 minutes total, and possibly another activity. The order of auditions is basically, those who come to the audition place first, auditions first and then the last, auditions last. Here is the information of the Modern Family: The Musical Auditions!

Who: The Directors and YOU (Yes, you)

We are thinking that Auditions will last until approximately 5:00 and then certain people will be asked to stay until 6:30pm. If you would like to be on Tech Crew, please do sign up as well and write what you would like to help out with (Note: We NEED lots of set work). Here are the possible Tech Jobs:

SETS - The Sets Committee will be building lots of sets and we need hard working people and strong people, this committee needs a Head and/or an Assistant.

PROPS - The Props Committee will be doing less work then the Sets Committee and you can be on both. Most of the props will be real life stuff, because Modern Family acts like an actual family. Needs a head.

COSTUMES - The Costumes Committee won't do any Special Costumes, and it will be mostly real casual clothing with SOME exceptions, needs a head.

MAKEUP - The Makeup Committee will be working with just basic makeup and some Old Age Makeup, Glamour Style Makeup, SOME specialty makeup, could use a head.

TECH - The Tech Committee consists of people working on Sound, Lights, Mics, etc. This committee will need to work with FAST mic changes. Needs a head, and a possible Assistant.

The Finished Product

Hello All! I have just finished writing the complete script or libretto for Modern Family: The Musical! I feel so relieved right now, like I just accomplished the biggest thing in the world. Please feel free to leave a question in the comments that will soon get answered. I feel so amazed at this 74 page wonder of a script! This process is not over, the hardest and longest part is over. Thank you to my family and my dog for supporting me and just simply believing in me that I can do this! Soon, I hope to have auditions once the "Creation Process" is TOTALLY COMPLETE! Then, for my out of town friends and family, you can then watch the show on YouTube! I'm getting super excited about this and can't wait for what comes next!
I'll leave you (my supporters) with one pondering Modern Family Quote (TV Series, Not Musical)

Plot Synopsis

Hello Again! I will now give you a plot synopsis of the show

 

Modern Family: The Musical

 

This World Premiere Musical recognizes the characters from ABC's Hit Show Modern Family! Starting out with a school day and transfers to different tasks, Alex is on track competing with another high school student on becoming valedictorian. This Musical is not based off of the most recent episodes of this hit show. Haley and Dylan are back together and are happy together. All Families are getting ready for a big dinner where they will OFFICIALLY have Everybody and be taking pictures at the Pritchett Household. This Musical is lighthearted, funny, and great for lovers of the show and just lovers of theatre in General. 

Script Update #1

Hello! I'm Tyler and I decided less than 2 years ago to write Modern Family: The Musical and I got through Act I in a year but I'm still working on Act II, I am on Page 50 and most musicals end at Page 80. So, doing some simple math, I am about more or less than 30 pages away from the finish. I'm really getting excited about the ending. Once I get even closer, I will alert this blog and keep you up to date. Once I finish, I will need some editors so if someone wants to volunteer to edit and revise this that'd be great. I am seeing this whole thing come together. I have written many, many mini scripts (Most I've ever written before: 10-15 pages). In fact I even have a blog showing some of the scripts that I have written (Scripts, Scripts, and More Scripts). This one is going to be super exciting! Even though, I will have some people not able to see this musical when it comes to life, I am hoping to put it on youtube or vimeo! I am so excited!
