Story synopsis: Lots of laughs, groovin' tunes, and a love story to die for! Live music from blues to burlesque to boogie to Broadway. A young woman builds up dreams of stardom, and finds true love.  Perfect for Valentine's Day! Please read the full story at http://web.ncf.ca/fm557/story.html

Roles wanted to fill: Desiree Devine, the Diva (female lead) -- Desiree, a lunch waitress whose real name is Dolores Pitt, is a small-town girl with attitude.  She's old enough to know better ... but young enough to dream.  (Looks 28-35 years old). She sings two songs and participates in others, including a beautiful love song.  Vocal ability required.  Professional music/vocal coaching provided.

Other comments: We're re-casting this role on short notice, as our Diva has time constraints and can't make rehearsals.  Group rehearsals are Mon & Wed evenings.  Some one-on-ones for script and music are also necessary. 

The part of Desiree Devine is the lead, but it's not a difficult role, and we have a strong group energy.  With a bit of catch-up work, the right person could pick up this role quickly.
