Job Details
DESCRIPTION Itsnovamusic is seeking powerhouse vocalists for our upcoming summer cabaret showcase, "Night of Mega Musicals", at Midtown Manhattan’s renowned cabaret club, Don't Tell Mama!
We are looking for passionate, versatile musical theater performers to bring Broadway's biggest, most epic anthems to life. Whether it’s Les Misérables, The Phantom of the Opera, Wicked, Miss Saigon, Hamilton, The Lion Kings or Cats—we want to showcase the grandest songs on an intimate cabaret stage.
We are building long-term relationships with local talent. Standout performers from this showcase will be fast-tracked and invited to headline our upcoming premiere cabaret series at prestigious venues, including The Greenroom 42 and 54 Below. Additionally, selected performers will be given priority casting for our upcoming NOVA Theatre Series at Don't Tell Mama throughout the year!
Unlike traditional showcases that impose heavy ticket minimums or out-of-pocket financial penalties, NOVA Music Collective believes in a true, supportive partnership with artists. We split the rewards generously while maintaining a sustainable environment for everyone involved.
