This is subject to change due to unforeseen conflicts.

 

Please take time to review the schedule and when various parts are attending.  If a student accepts a role, they will be expected to attend each and every rehearsal they are called for.  If a student has other commitments that will make attending on time and all the time, we advise not auditioning for the show.

Audition sign-ups are now open!  Below are the steps for registering and what comes next.

If you do not have an account, you must create one.  If you haven’t updated your account, you must do so or your student will not show as active and the forms will not present for you.
    • All students must participate in a group audition, which requires learning one song and a small piece of choreography on your own.  Materials are online.
  2. Students in 4th Grade and up may choose to also register for a lead or major featured role audition slot, held on Monday, October 19th.  You will not be auditioning for any specific role but rather to be considered for any of these roles.

Audition Prep Material:  Group Auditions

Everyone wishing to be in this production must participate Group Auditions.  To prepare for that audition, you must learn the song below.  It is expected that you have the song memorized prior to the audition.

 

SONG:  BREAK THIS DOWN

 

Audition Prep Material:  Role-Specific Auditions

We are not auditioning for individual lead or major featured roles but rather for all of them.  Each student must learn one of the songs below.  There are no lines to learn, however.  Instead, we’d like you to focus on character development and show us what you’ve got!

 

If you do not want any of the lead or featured roles, you should not to participate in these auditions.

 

If a student has limited availability and cannot attend every rehearsal, do not register for one of these limited slots.

 

Below are the songs to prepare.  Sheet music and audio tracks, both with and without lyrics, have also been provided.  It is expected that you have the entire song memorized and can sing the song without sheet music and to the performance track, without lyrics.

For these roles, we are looking for actors who can portray the very distinct personalities for each persona.  We are looking for those who have developed a character with vocalizations, facial expressions, body and hand movements, and someone who can use the space given.

 

FEMALE LEAD MATERIALS:  EVIL LIKE ME (REPRISE)

 

 

MALE LEAD MATERIALS:  DID I MENTION?
