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!
