Producer: Kathleen Breedveld Director: John Maio Choreographer: Kelly Krauss Cooper Vocal Director: Sierra Dee Rankin Tri Valley Repertory Theatre www.trivalleyrep.org is excited to announce auditions Damn Yankees Damn Yankees the Broadway mega-hit that ushered in the VERDON / FOSSE era and winner of seven Tony Awards, including Best Musical, hits it out of the park! The winning score by Adler and Ross and a devilish book by George Abbot have made this sporty musical comedy a true American classic. Middle-aged baseball fanatic Joe Boyd, trades his soul to the Devil, also known as Mr. Applegate, for a chance to lead his favorite team to victory in the pennant race against the New York Yankees. As young baseball sensation, Joe Hardy, he transforms the hapless Washington Senators into a winning team, only to realize the true worth of the life that he's left behind. Joe ultimately outsmarts Applegate, returns to his former self and shepherds the Senators to the World Series.
