Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings is heading to New York City for live auditions for “Syd Norman’s Pour House,” a high-energy rock music experience featured across Norwegian Cruise Line and partner cruise lines, including Regent and Oceania.
NCLH Shows & Experiences is currently accepting appointment requests for rock vocalists and rock vocalist/guitarists interested in performing in this interactive, music-driven production.
About “Syd Norman’s Pour House”
“Syd Norman’s Pour House” is a musical concept created by the original creative team behind the Broadway musical “Rock of Ages.”
The show takes audiences back to the glory days of rock music from the late 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s. Inspired by the legendary energy of LA’s Sunset Strip, the production combines live music, comedy, audience interaction, improvisation, and a powerful house band.
Performers should be ready to bring big vocals, strong personality, humor, and authentic rock energy to the stage.

Roles Being Cast

Performers should also have strong improv acting skills, comedic timing, and the ability to work with a loose script while interacting with the audience.
