PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Casting Equity chorus singers and dancers for the Off-Broadway production of "Big Gay Jamboree."

Synopsis: After blacking out from 18 Jägerbomb shots, Stacey wakes up hungover in the most terrifying place of all: a Broadway musical. With no memory of how she got there, Stacey is forced to put her BFA in theater to use and figure out how to escape this musical dystopia while a live audience watches. It’s like "The Wizard of Oz," if Dorothy was a bisexual stoner.
