South Park creator Trey Parker’s Cannibal! The Musical! is the kind of true story of the only person convicted of cannibalism in America - Alfred Packer. The sole survivor of an ill-fated trip to the Colorado Territory, he tells his side of the harrowing tale to news reporter Polly Pry as he awaits his execution. And his story goes like this: While searching for gold and love in the Colorado Territory, he and his companions lost their way and resorted to unthinkable horrors, including toe-tapping songs!
FIlled with Parker’s trademark dark comic edge and buffoonery, Cannibal! is for mature audiences only. Auditions are February 25th at 6:30 PM at The Liberty Theatre at 2100 Sherman Avenue, North Bend, Oregon. Please prepare part of a song and be prepared to move.
