WML ADDITIONAL ROLES


ADDITIONAL ROLES: 
              As mentioned on the audition sheet, I was looking for some additional group numbers that I wanted to create.   Based on auditions, I have cast these additional numbers/roles to help our transitions into a SNL-themed show.  Please see this list, as you might be in an addition number and/or needed in another part of the show.


<Celebrity Emcee Nolan Morley as Justin Timerblake>
Nolan, please take a look at this monologue from SNL and come up with a one-minute version of this before you play the piano.  You are Justin Timberlake as you play/sing “What Goes Around Comes Around”.


SNL Spiderman skit:
Spiderman, Jacob Olausen
reporter, Taylor Lovejoy
Spiderman is rolled out and is interviewed by reporter, Taylor Lovejoy mimicking the SNL “Weekend Update” 

Spartan Cheerleaders Skit from SNL
Roslyn – this script is coming to you

<Celebrity Emcee Maggie Hughes as Taylor Swift>
Maggie, since you sing Taylor Swift’s song with your trio, please come up with a one minute monologue mimicking Taylor Swift from her perspective.  Please dress as her and become her celebrity look-a-like for this number – you are Taylor Swift with your gals as you sing this song.

<WEEKEND UPDATE:  Allie Bower as Seth Myers from SNL>
Allie, I would like you to mimmick SNL’s “Weekend Update” as being the lead reporter.  You will have the following guest stars:

<GUEST STAR:  Stephen Barrett as Justin Bieber>

<GUEST STAR: Herbert Meisner as Charlie Sheen>

Herbert, Stephen, and Allie - I will get a script to you detailing these conversations.  This will be short but will certainly add to the show theme.

SKIT:  Save Broadway
I am adding the “Save Broadway” skit from SNL.  Feel free to check it online, but please know that I will be editing this due to content, as well as adding and removing certain characters.  Please see the list below for the characters I will use for this skit.  If possible, please come up with your own costume for your character.  We will go over this at rehearsal.  You will also be given a script.

For a sneak peek, please go online and watch with a parent’s permission:
PARENTS – please note, there is some language and slightly inappropriate content.  Please know this will be changed for WML.
