> AUDITION FOR THE CHRISTMAS CAROLERS
> Remember Christmas caroling as a child, or perhaps as an adult?
>
> For that moment, the spirit of Christmas came alive in your heart.
> Bringing joy to others, you braved the cold night in hopes of
> returning home to a steaming cup of hot chocolate.
>
> The Christmas spirit remains strong within the hearts of The Christmas
> Carolers. In 1996, a new company was born that experienced immediate
> success in a virtually untapped seasonal market. The Christmas
> Carolers bring exceptional quality to the field of holiday
> entertainment. Now, in a post-9/11 America, people are reaching toward
> time-honored traditions more than ever before. There has never been a
> better time or more fertile marketplace for The Christmas Carolers.
>
> The Christmas Caroler's perform traditional Christmas pieces with
> their unique blend of a cappella harmony dressed in authentic 19th
> century English costumes, reminiscent of the Charles Dickens era. They
> stroll from table to table, store to store or door to door creating a
> wonderful seasonal atmosphere.
>
> Our very attainable goal is to set the benchmark for the highest
> standard of holiday entertainment available. Our mission is to provide
> clients with the finest á cappella quartets costumed in 19th century
> English attire at a reasonable hourly rate. If you're apart of a
> group like this now. Please understand we will be entering your
> market with the power of a nationally advertised brand; offering
> customer service, a powerful web site and quality assurance.
>
> If you would like to audition for the 2005 SEASON of The Christmas
> Carolers, all markets have not been determined yet, please reply back
> to this email (just saying I'm interested, with name, phone and email)
> and mail an audition tape back to the following address (The Christmas
> Carolers, 2201 Rushmore Way, Hoover, AL 35226). On the audition tape
> (VHS) please sing three á cappella holiday songs. Also, this is a
> dress rehearsal audition. We're looking for Dicken's era costumes.
> Men you can add to a tuxedo (top hat, ascot tie, cane, gloves, etc.).
> Ladies you have to use a little more ingenuity. Sometimes you can
> find period costumes in a costume shop or you can find a vintage dress
> with a pull-over cape (adding bonnets, gloves, hat, etc). Just
> remember, you must do your best to look the part.
>
> We will review the video tapes (due by July 20) and will be making
> decisions by August 15. Please visit our web site (which is under
> renovation) to learn more about The Christmas Carolers. There are
