What Should You Bring To Auditions? 
 

     Prepare a 60 second (or thereabouts) cut from a broadway style song. If you can find the piano music for it (also called sheet music), please bring it to auditions so the accompanist can play the background music for you. We will not be accepting any karaoke tracks this year. If you cannot find the sheet music, you can also sing a capella (meaning without accompaniment). 
     If you are trying out for a lead or supporting role, please bring a 60 second monologue as well. This is a prepared (preferably memorized) acting piece for one person. You can find them online or in a monologue book. If you can't find one, you could prepare a dramatic or comical poem that shows you can act. The Directors just want to make sure you can sing and act and see if you have the right skills & personality to play one of the many roles! 
     We'll also be taking into account any conflicts you have between January and the beginning of April, so bring a list of any known dates you will be gone or weeknights you can't be at rehearsal.
     Although we'll have an audition form to fill out with prior experience, conflicts, contact info, etc, you may choose to bring an acting resume as well, along with a picture of yourself. These are totally optional. We will also be taking your picture at auditions with your auditioner number.
