Broadway seeks a new Carole King with open auditions in New York, Seattle, Pittsburgh, Chicago

NEW YORK, N.Y. – If you think you can sing “It’s Too Late” and “So Far Away” like Carole King, some Broadway producers would like to hear from you.

Nationwide open casting calls were announced Wednesday to find a new King and other cast members for “Beautiful — The Carole King Musical.” There will be auditions in New York on Jan. 16; Seattle on Jan. 24; Orlando, Florida, on Feb. 7; Pittsburgh on Feb. 21; and Chicago on Feb. 28.

The current King, Tony Award-winner Jessie Mueller, is leaving the show in March.
