Adults please come prepared with two contrasting 16 to 32-bar excerpts in a Rogers and Hammerstein musical theater style that shows off your range and/or ability, that is NOT from the show. We will definitely hear one, but may ask for the second piece only we need to hear more. Kids please bring something you are comfortable singing, but again nothing from the show please. We ask that everyone bring sheet music for your audition pieces, as we will not accept a capella auditions.
Monologues are not required. Please note that you may be asked to do a cold reading from the script at callbacks.
There will also be a dance/movement portion of the auditions, taught in groups. Please wear comfortable shoes (no flip flops) and clothing that you can move in.
