Auditions October 8th and 9th, 2021

Audition location: First Southern Baptist Church of Paradise Valley (16033 N 32nd St, Phoenix, AZ 85032)
Inspired by the USO Camp Shows performed by Bob Hope and friends, Hope for the Holidays: A Forgotten Christmas is the second-ever PCA-original production. Following Hope for the Holidays: A WWII Christmas (performed in December 2019), A Forgotten Christmas takes place in 1952 during the Korean War, with all new songs and hilarious skits that'll knock your socks off! Bob Hope used his talents in music and comedy to bring joy and hope to those brave men and women who faced nightmares every day. The Hope for the Holidays series transports the audience back in time to the seats of those soldiers as they laugh and cheer along with us. Led by Bob Hope himself, a gaggle of famous celebrities of the time bring the spirit of the season to life in this heartfelt Christmas spectacular!

*Unique in its design, the Hope for the Holidays series creates its cast of characters based off of the cast of talented individuals who partake. Each performer emulates a notable celebrity or figure of the time (in this case, the early 1950s). Those who only sign up for acting auditions will be featured primarily-exclusively in the skits, those who only sign up for dance auditions will be featured primarily-exclusively in dances, etc.
