Auditions: Monday through Thursday the week of Dec. 6th
After School, 3:15-5:20 PM - plan to stay for the entire time!

Sign up for Cast Auditions & Crew Interviews

Goals:  

• Get an idea of your skills as an actor / singer / dancer.
• See how you bring a character to life.
• Determine if you’d be good to work with for the duration of the production.

 
What to Bring to Your Audition:

• Monologue – Prepare a 30-45 second monologue. Choose any monologue you want.
• Song – Prepare approximately 16-32 bars (roughly a verse and a chorus) of any song you like. You may sing a cappella or along with a recorded track or Mrs. Basescu will play piano if you provide the sheet music.
• Dance – Please wear or bring clothes and shoes that you can move in for the dance portion of the audition. Bring tap shoes if you have them.
• Extras – Bring a snack as well as something quiet to do, such as a book or homework. It’s a long wait for your turn to audition.

 
Notes and Suggestions:

• Find a monologue and song that tells a story and that fits you and your experiences, with a character or situation that you can relate to.
• No need to memorize.
• No props or costumes.
• In case you’re having trouble finding a monologue, here are some online sites to check out:

• Your song doesn’t have to be from a musical. It can be your favorite pop tune or even the Star-Spangled Banner.

 
Advice:

• Be yourself -- just a little bigger than usual.
• Show the joy and excitement you have for the monologue and/or song you're performing.
• This is your time to shine. The stage is all yours -- even if only for three minutes.

 
Callbacks, if needed, will be held the week of Dec. 13th. Casting for the musical will be announced on Sunday, Dec. 19th.
