Famed entertainers begin cast search for their headlining production show
at Flamingo Las Vegas
LAS VEGAS, May 13 -- The search is on! When Donny and
Marie Osmond recently announced they would be returning to Las Vegas for
their first headlining engagement in 29 years, they decided to add an
unprecedented opportunity. The acclaimed duo will host an open casting
call, which kicks off today, in search of talented dancers to be part of
their all-new production at Flamingo Las Vegas, opening Sept. 9. It is
probable that one or more of the contestants will be selected to perform in
the show as a result of this worldwide audition contest.
