The Boy From Oz

Callback Material

The callback material for The Boy From Oz is posted below. It consists of two music files in PDF form and two script files in PDF form. We will have printed copies on hand for the callbacks, but if you can print yours in advance, that would be helpful (or if you are used to using a tablet or large smartphone or electronic reader as your "book", feel free to load the PDFs into your own device.)

You are not expected to memorize these cuttings or songs. In fact, it is preferable to spend your time thinking about the characters and their characterizations for these scenes than to worry about memorization on such short notice.

Important!

Much of the material contained here is copyrighted, either by the original author and composing team, or by the licensing agency (in this case, David Spicer Productions). This material is made available SOLELY for the purpose of use during callbacks. Please do NOT distribute ANY of this material or the link to this page to anyone without the express permission of Landmark Musicals. This information is being given to you in good faith with the understanding that you will erase any files that you may have acquired and destroy any material you may have printed after callbacks are completed.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR COOPERATION!
