Requirements for Vocal Audition:
All students will be asked to sing the National Anthem. Please note that your audition will be a cappella and there will be no accompaniment track provided.
Each new student will also be vocalized to determine you range during the audition. All this means is that we want to hear you sing and Ms. Morris will do some vocal warm-up exercises with you to determine where your voice is most comfortable.
Requirements for Movement/Dance Audition:
All students will learn a short choreographed sequence at the audition. They will then be given some time to rehearse the choreography, before performing for the director(s).
Individuals will be placed in small groups in which they will perform the choreography. You may be asked to run the choreography multiple times.
