Newport World Resorts is dazzling theatergoers this 2025 with its newest, fiercest and most fabulous production titled Delia D: A Dragtastic Musical. The highly anticipated musical is the 11th major theatrical masterpiece from Newport World Resorts’ production outfit Full House Theater Company that features iconic songs by the celebrated songwriter and music producer Jonathan Manalo.
Those who can serve diva realness and the talent to werk it on stage, now is the chance to flaunt it. Audition for Delia D: A Dragtastic Musical is going down on October 8, 2024, Tuesday, at the Newport Performing Arts Theater. On the audition day, registration begins at 9AM and ends at 4PM at the entrance of El Calle Food & Music Hall. This nationwide casting call invites theater enthusiasts, ages 17 to 50 years old, with talents in both singing and dancing.
For the singing audition, candidates must prepare 32 bars from their favorite musical that best highlights their vocal range. The dance audition portion will require learning and performing a routine on the spot. Applicants should come prepared with a CV and a 3R photo, and must be available from February 1, 2025, to June 30, 2025, for rehearsals and performances.
The buzz for the new musical began earlier this June, when Newport World Resorts treated audiences to a sneak peek during the final curtain call of Buruguduystunstugudunstuy: Ang Parokya ni Edgar Musical. Theater star Phi Palmos snatched the spotlight with a stunning performance of Manalo’s emotional hit, “Gusto Ko Nang Bumitaw,” setting the stage for what gears up to be one of the most glamorous productions of the 2025 theater season.
