the-producers
Come prepared to perform a short musical theater excerpt that shows their skills as a singer, and a short (1 minute) monologue. Please, audition not to exceed 3 minutes.

The show will run: May 12, 13, 14, 19, 20, and 21. Dr. Charles Enlow will be the producer and musical director.

About the show:
The Producers is based around the character of Max Bialystock, a down and out Broadway producer whose latest work flopped on opening night. Max, plagued by his former success and scrabbling to stay afloat, experiences a change in fortune when downtrodden accountant, Leo Bloom, discovers there is money to be made in Max’s theatrical failure. As a result, the two formerly defeated business men form an unlikely union with the goal of creating the worlds worst musical. The plot develops as the duo enlists the help of ridiculous and often farcical characters on the way such as former Nazi and on-going Third Reich enthusiast Franz Liebkind, Ulla the blonde bombshell secretary/receptionist and the flamboyant homosexual director Roger De Bris. As a result of the characters combined brainpower and ludicrous behavior Spring Time for Hitler is born in Broadway.

A message from President Roberts

Dear Colleague,

Many students and employees across the nation’s college campuses continue to feel a heightened sense of fear and concern for their safety in the shifting political climate.

I want to reassure every Shoreline student, staff, and faculty member that the College is steadfast in our commitment to being a welcoming and inclusive place. We are committed to upholding a culture of free expression, as well as maintaining a supportive and respectful learning environment for all.

As stated in our Community Standard, we do not tolerate hateful, violent, or discriminatory actions that target any person or group based on their beliefs, customs, identity, or affiliations.

I also want to affirm that our students’ education records — including information regarding immigration status — are protected by federal privacy laws. Our institution has no legal obligation or affirmative duty to enforce federal immigration law; that is the responsibility of federal law enforcement agencies.

This means we do not request immigration documentation except as needed to determine the eligibility of resident tuition rates. We do not make admissions decisions about students based on immigration status, nor do our campus security detain or question people based on suspicion of undocumented status.

If you have any concern about your civil rights at the College or want to report any behavior you believe may violate the Community Standard, please email communitystandard@shoreline.edu.

We at Shoreline Community College are unwavering in our dedication to maintain an open and supportive place of learning. I am confident we will continue to find ways to come together as a community to embrace compassion, understanding, and the ability to seek out common ground.

“Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly…” —Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Respectfully,
Cheryl Roberts, Ed.D.
President
