Commissions due as always let Craze know if cast thanks!
The Role:
Not only the guitar weeps, so does a sad young woman whose graceful dance belies her loneliness in this soulful interpretation of the George Harrison classic. Two oversized paper puppets sway overhead, containing the countless letters written (or received) over the course of her unrequited love life.  What a stark reminder that life does not always unfold like a sweet dream. There is also disillusion, injustice, and incomprehension.
 
Technical Description:
Little Darling’s role requires a raw, contemporary performance that flows between technique and pedestrian movements. The dancer should have beautiful lines and a solid technical base allowing for freedom in the upper body, neck, and head movements as well as flexibility in the legs and back.
 
The candidate must have the following character’s traits:
  • Female;
  • Ideally 5’10 or taller;
  • Emotionally vulnerable character.
Requirements for the role:

  • Strong stage presence;
  • Contemporary dancer with some Hip Hop ability;
  • Experience as a soloist is an asset.
