May 16 & 17 – Adult Auditions for “Andalusian Treasures”

Be a part of a spectacular holiday tradition!

Washington Revels announces adult (ages 18+) auditions for its 43rd annual holiday production. Join our 40-person adult chorus for this year’s show, “Andalusian Treasures,” and bring a delightful blend of music, dance and story to life! 

Our tale begins in ancient Spain. Three foolish adventurers stumble upon a secret treasure room. The treasure glows with a magical light that seems to bring inestimable joy. When that light disappears on the darkest night of the year, a quest begins. What is the light? Can it be rekindled?

This fully staged production takes us on a magical journey to celebrate the rich cultural legacies of the Moorish, Sephardic, and Iberian peoples—including exquisite Arab-Andalusian and Sephardic music; lively Villancicos (Spanish folk carols); a Sevillanas (flamenco-style dance); a comic “play within a play;” and, in classic Revels tradition, opportunities for the audience to join in carols, rounds, and more!

At the core of every Revels production is a volunteer chorus. Cast members are people who love to sing, who are enthusiastic about bringing music to life on stage, and who come from diverse backgrounds, ethnicities, and experience levels.

COVID Policy for Auditions – All adults who audition must be fully vaccinated with at least one current booster. Masking is optional (we will ask you to unmask when singing individually during the audition). These policies are subject to change, given the current COVID environment.
