What to Prepare
- At least one monologue ( A monologue may be as brief as 1 minute long, but no longer than 2 minutes. )
- If you are auditioning for the musical we ask you to prepare a 32-bar cut of a song in a similar style of the show, along with your monologue. There will be an accompanist available, so please bring in sheet music or you can sing acapella.
- You may choose to present 2 monologues, if not auditioning for the musical.
- Be sure that your combined audition materials does not exceed 3 minutes. This procedure helps keep appointments on schedule for everyone.
A 5-minute time period is allotted for each audition. This allows time for you to enter, greet everyone, set up, perform, and say goodbye before you exit.
Don’t have a monologue, don’t know what to prepare? Don’t worry! Monologues are available for anyone interested here. Alternatively, speak to any one of our acting faculty members for suggestions.
Also, perusal copies of the scripts will be available on Box HERE. Scripts are available for viewing ONLY. You may not print, download, or save them. If cast, you will receive an individual copy of the script.
