The Dilettante Group of Magic Valley will hold public auditions to choose a cast for its March production, “Crazy for You, The New Gershwin Musical.”

Auditions will be 2-7 p.m. Jan. 15 and 7-9 p.m. Jan. 16 at Encore Performance and Event Center, 681 Filer Ave.

Come prepared to sing a song. No accompanist will be provided; CD, iPod and MP3 players will be available, or you can bring an accompanist. Casting will be posted on Facebook and on the door of the Encore center.

The musical opens in the 1930s at Zangler Theater in New York, where Bobby Child, the rich son of a banking family, failed to impress Mr. Zangler with his dance routine. Bobby’s mother sends him to Deadrock, Nev., to foreclose on a rundown theater, but Bobby falls in love with Polly Baker, whose father owns the theater. Bobby, disguised as Zangler, stages a show to pay the theater’s mortgage. Polly falls in love with Bobby’s impersonation of Zangler. Then the actual Zangler comes into town, and Bobby needs to tell Polly the truth.

Rehearsals begin Jan. 23; they’ll be 7:30-10 p.m. Mondays through Thursdays in the basement of Encore Performance and Event Center.
