There Are No Small Parts, but . . .

Come out, come out, wherever you are. Casting directors for Radio City Entertainment’s live production of “The Wizard of Oz,” will hold auditions today in Irvine for Munchkin roles.

Candidates--who will be judged on their ability to sing and dance the chorus to “Ding, Dong! The Witch Is Dead” and such unique qualities as Munchkin-like voices--can be adults or boys and girls 7 to 14. All must be no taller than 4 feet 10.

Three selected Munchkins will appear in walk-on roles in performances of “The Wizard” at the Orange County Performing Arts Center. The first 100 entrants will receive a CD of the cast recording.

Registration begins at 10:30 a.m., auditions at 11 at the Irvine Spectrum, located at the junction of the San Diego and Santa Ana freeways in Irvine.

Auditions for the role of Dorothy will be held July 6 at the Orange County Performing Arts Center in Costa Mesa.
