You should be prepared to sing a song of your choice acapella (usually verse and chorus), read from the script and do some vocal exercises. Auditions will be September 16th from 3:15-5. 

If you are interested in being part of the chorus, those auditions will be held on September 29th. From 1-2. If you would like to be a featured dancer, those auditions are from 2-3:00 that same day. 

Don’t want to be on stage? There will soon be a signup sheet for backstage, set, props and costume crew!
