Round 1: Singing Auditions
1. Download and print APPLICATION. Fill out the application and bring it to your audition.
2. SIGN UP FOR AUDITION TIME using link to the Google Doc.
3. Prepare approximately one minute of a song that shows off your voice. You should perform the song as you would do a monologue, playing a specific character with defined objectives. Songs from musical theater are strongly recommended. You may use your phone or other device for recorded accompaniment (but please don’t use one with someone else’s voice singing the song) or you can sing acapella (i.e., without accompaniment).
4. Arrive 10-15 minutes before your scheduled audition time and plan to stay about 30 minutes.
5. You will also be asked to sing a round (such as “Row, Row, Row Your Boat”) with a group of 3-4 other students to test your ability to hold harmonies.
6. HAVE CONFIDENCE in yourself and RELISH the experience!!
Round 2: Dance auditions
Wear comfortable shoes and clothes! You will learn and perform a dance combination (in a group). Come even if you don’t consider yourself a dancer, and plan to stay the entire time!
Round 3: Callbacks
If you are invited to a callback, expect to sing selections from the show, improvise scenes, and read from the script. This part of the audition is done in groups of people being considered for a certain part. Plan to stay the entire time for which you are called.
