"On Your Feet!" an upcoming Broadway play about the lives of Latino music icons Gloria Estefan and her husband Emilio Estefan, is accepting online auditions.

On Monday, it was announced that "On Your Feet!" would debut on Broadway in the fall of 2015, The Hollywood Reporter reports. The musical will tell the stories of the Estefans as they make their way from Cuba, to Miami, to fame and fortune. It will feature new music by the musicians, according to Broadway, as well as crossover hits like "1-2-3," "Conga," Music of My Heart" and "Rhythm is Gonna Get You." The play will be directed by Jerry Mitchell ("Kinky Boots") and choreographed by Sergio Trujillo ("Jersey Boys," "Memphis").

An international campaign called Reach Gloria (promoted with the hashtag #ReachGloria) has been launched and asks actors to send in audition footage online.

"Gloria and Emilio Estefan are looking for talented hopefuls for the new musical based on their lives to debut on Broadway in 2015," the official website says in English and Spanish. "Show us your talent, show us your passion, and show us your rhythm!"

In addition, there will be open casting calls on Sept. 9 at New York City's Pearl Studios as well as on Sept. 21 at the Knight Concert Hall of Adrienne Arsht Center in Miami.

"Finding the right performers to tell our story on the Broadway stage is the most important step in this project," Gloria said in a statement, according to THR. "Our own journey together started in Miami, a city that has been such an inspiration to us both, and it only felt right that the city be a cornerstone of our search for the next generation of bright talent."

Preview performances of "On Your Feet!" begin on Oct. 5, 2015. The show opens on Broadway on Nov. 5, 2015.
