[Casting Call] Cuphead the Unofficial Musical (Chorus & Miscellaneous Characters)
Project Overview
Based on the bestselling 2017 video game "Cuphead Don't Deal With The Devil". Cuphead is in the style of an old 1900's cartoon. The video game and musical is about two cartoon characters Cuphead and Mugman. They run into the woods playing and accidentally end up on the wrong side of the tracks and enter The Devils Casino! Inside, the two brothers find themselves on the winning streak but just as the game was about to be won, the casino's owner, the devil himself comes out. The devil challenges the two brothers, win one more role and all the money is theirs, but loose and he'll have their souls! Despite Mugmans warnings, Cuphead grabs the dice, SNAKE EYES! The two boys plead for their very lives and the devil makes an exception. He tells them to track down and get the contracts of his other debtors and he will spare them, but they only have 24 hours. Cuphead and Mugman go out on a fun-filled and unforgettable adventure throughout Inkwell Isle. They learn important life lessons and make new friends along the way. Join us as auditioning for one of many fun and interesting characters in this fun musical. Come and help make my dream of writing a musical come true! -KeenebeanKarr
