TULSA, Okla. â A local theater company is doubling down on its COVID protocol after an exposure, last week. Theatre Tulsa now requires every eligible performer to be vaccinated or they do not get to take the stage.
âWe like to pretend on stage all the time, but out in the real world the COVID pandemic is still going on, itâs still very real, and itâs still very deadly, Theatre Tulsa Executive Director Jarrod Kopp said.
Kopp and other staff at Theatre Tulsa implemented the vaccination requirement a few weeks before its production of Matilda is set to take center stage. The original production was shut down in Spring 2020 due to COVID.
Theatre Tulsa has announced that it will hold auditions for its upcoming musical “Dreamgirls” on July 10, 2021.
The auditions will be held from 1-6pm at the Bravo Academy for the Performing Arts, 5147-B S. Harvard Ave. in midtown Tulsa.
In Dreamgirls, an all-girl trio of soul singers rise to the top of the pop charts and become superstars while fighting to survive the cold and competitive world of show business. The hit Broadway musical is based on the show business successes of such R&B acts as The Supremes, The Shirelles, James Brown, Jackie Wilson, and others.
The auditions will be held in three 90-minute blocks featuring vocal auditions and a group dance call.
