Open auditions for "The Rainbow Children" Rock Opera!

" was supposed to be Prince's "rock opera" and it truly rocked. "3 Chains O Gold" sounded like it belonged in some kick-ass musical. But TRC seems to fit the bill even better, and it has the whole plot built in. So the Prince Dot Org Superfunky Theater Company has decided to put it on! We are currently looking to fill the following roles:

The Wise One
The First Woman
Satan (aka The Resistor)
The Muse
The Muse's Vibrator
The Banished Ones
Various Rainbow Children
Thomas Jefferson
Creepy Deep-Voiced Narrator
Macy Gray
Common

Please contact us if you are interested in any of the above parts.

I'd like to try out for the part of Satan please...old lucifer, memnoch, spookyelectric...I saw Mama Mia last night (not a big fan of the band but the show was aight) and you know what? The entire night I kept thinking of a musical inspired by Prince tunes...The Rainbow Children would be an interesting musical indeed...

Jestyr	Even better as an ANIMATED musical - ala a Dr Suess cartoon! And using the artwork on the cover as a character model template.

Do you know anyone who has the programs to animate it? That would so kick ass! Can I steal your idea? Tough I'm doing it. Prince would never let it be released anyway so there's no money to be had. Just a little bit of fun

so tell me "WHAT THE FUCK IS THE STORYLINE ABOUT?"

Who's the main protagonist?
Whos his antagonist?
What's his quest, his goal?
What does he desire to achieve?
How does the villain seek to prevent this?

opp thought I was teaching CREATIVE WRITING again.
