AUDITIONS: Morris Micklewhite and the Tangerine Dress

October 19, 2026 - 6:00 pm at Des Moines Playhouse
831 42nd Street

Cast: 8 Youth Roles | 2 Adult Roles

Morris likes lots of things: doing puzzles, painting pictures, pretending to be an astronaut, and wearing a tangerine dress from his school’s dress-up box because it “reminds him of tigers, the sun, and his mother’s hair.” But some of his classmates think boys can’t wear dresses because … well, because they’re boys. With his vivid imagination and space-animal friends, Morris travels the galaxy in search of an answer to the all-important question: “Do astronauts wear dresses?”
