Watch some of the helpful videos on this site
Read all the audition pieces out loud. Shakespeare is meant to be performed not read like a novel so talking it out loud actually helps. Think of it more like poetry and think about the pattern of the words.
While its not something we would normally say - go watch the movie. There are a heap of them but the reccomendation is the 1999 Michelle Pfeiffer and Rupert Everett version as the most accesable and not to far off lanuage wise.
I can't make the audition dates, what do I do?
Don't worry, contact the production team and they can talk about potential options. If the audition time slots are fully booked, please contact the production team.
Help! I have never auditioned or acted before? What do I do?
There are some helpful audition tips inuseful videos page. We love learning with new actors and we will cast the show based on the best person for each role, regardless of prior experience. Because of this, show us you! Show us your fun side and your ability to give it a go. Be open with us in your audition so we can support you.
Can I message the production team to ask about individualised information about the show?

There is also a breadth of information online from previous professional productions that may benefit your own research. If you have questions or concerns you may email info@stagtheatre.com or bella@stagtheatre.com. We would love to hear from regarding the show, or just to say hello!
I can't make all of the rehearsals because I have a holiday booked, can I still audition?
If you have planned holidays that fall during the rehearsal period and impact 3 or more rehearsals, this will impact your successful involvement in the production of the show. The rehearsal period will proceed at a fast pace to incorporate all teh dances , blocking and singing for this show and will be greatly impacted if our cast can't attend rehearsals. Please notify the production team if you are unsure or have any questions.
Of course, during the rehearsal period, circumstances like illness are always accepted and managed.
How do I download the information pack?
Good question! On the info pack look for the arrow in the square in the top right corner, this will pop out the PDF which you can then download. It does work best on a PC, but should work no problem on a phone or tablet.
