Ensemble: If you're not interested in a lead role, you can come prepared with a a group to sing or we will put you in a group at auditions to sing with for your audition.
DANCE:
Students will not be expected to dance at auditions, but many opportunities for dance will be available to all cast members throughout the rehearsal process beginning in January.
ACT (at call backs): Actors will be given scripts to rehearse at call backs to see dynamics between different characters. Scripts CAN be used in the audition.
Callbacks:
Please read everything about callbacks:
1. Please know a callback does not mean a lead or even a named part, but that we liked what we heard and saw and want to see/hear you again.
2. You will each sing again for us at the beginning of callbacks. Please plan on moving for us while you sing.
3. Some of you will be asked to sing again (and maybe again).
4. Some of you will be given a script to prepare a scene from and perform during callbacks.
