Our shows are appropriate for an audience of all ages, and most roles are teen-centric.

Everyone is eligible to audition but no one is guaranteed a role.

How to Audition?

Auditions are MANDATORY typically for LEAD roles and for ALL NEWCOMERS.

What Do I Do For an Audition?

Before singing, please state your name, age, and the name of the song. Then begin.

1. Singing: You should come prepared for a 45-90 second song. Sing with a backing track with no vocals, please.

2. Acting: You will read a monologue given to you at the audition to read. You do not need to memorize anything.

Go to: AUDITIONS PAGE

Don't Want a Lead Role?

Ensemble roles are available for those who do not want the burden or responsibilty of a lead.

There are various ensemble roles available, that focus on vocals and/or dance, but most ensemble members do it all.
If you are most comfortable doing one but not the other, please let us know during your audition.
