What to Prepare and Bring to Your Audition

Please make sure you have completed all required forms and either made an appointment or submitted your virtual audition materials on or before 11:59 pm, Monday, September 18. We know there is a lot of stuff to prepare and bring with you to auditions. Please reach out if you need help or have questions!

Song Selection

We want you to be comfortable at auditions! 

  • Prepare 32 bars of any Golden Age of Broadway (1943-1964) musical theatre song. Choose a song that excites and delights you as an actor. This should be approximately 1 minute long.

    • In person auditions are preferred. Here are the details for an in person audition:

      • Bring sheet music that is clearly marked with your audition cut and be sure that your music is in the correct key as our accompanist will not transpose on the spot

      • Learn more about this process HERE (This video refers to Seussical auditions, but the process is the same, except we are asking for 32 bars rather than 16)

    • Virtual Auditions will be allowed for students who are not in town on September 20. Check out our Virtual Audition page to learn how virtual auditions are different from in person auditions.

  • A cappella music will not be considered for an audition

What to Wear

Wear clothes that are professional, comfortable, and that you can move easily in. Please keep your hair tied back away from your face. If you are clean, comfortable and looking your best, you are ready to go!  We will be taking a head shot of you when you arrive.

Your Day of Audition Checklist

  • RESUME: bring a printed resume. If you have any performance experience, show or otherwise, we ask that you provide a resume, this is particularly helpful if you have extensive dance training, vocal training, or can juggle five wuzzles. If you don’t have any performance experience, you may skip this step.

    • View a sample resume HERE

  • SHEET MUSIC: bring your sheet music with your audition cut in the correct key that you'll be singing. See the Song Selection section above for more information.

Callback Auditions:

  • Callback will be by invitation only Thursday, September 21, from 7pm-9pm.

  • The callback list will be posted to this callboard at approximately 12 am Thursday, September 21. Because of the way that our automatic email notifications work, you won’t receive an email about the callback list until 4pm, but the information will be here on the callboard.

  • For any students in Lovegood Thursday evening classes, we will coordinate your callback, if any, around your class schedule.

Closed Auditions

Auditions and Callbacks will be closed, however, parents of younger students may wait in our waiting room while their student auditions. There will not be a waiting room for callbacks. Students will need to leave when their audition or callback is completed.
