Audition Information

(5 minutes)

1. Sing a section of a song

   You will sing a solo (60 seconds max). Please bring your own back track cued up on your phone ready to go. We strongly discourage cast members from auditoning accapella (meaning no music track/karaoke youtube track in the background playing to accompany you while you sing). Only experienced musicians that can stay on pitch and in-tempo without a backing track should consider doing their audition accapella.

2. Reading of Sides

   You will read lines from the actual show - we will select 2 or 3 roles for you to read from, but if you have interest in reading for a particular role - you can come prepared to read those lines. See below for the link to the sides that we will use at auditions for the readings.

Sides for Auditions

If you have practiced/memorized a particular side you can TELL US in auditions and read from what you have practiced. (Hint, Hint….you should click on these sides below and practice some of them BEFORE YOUR AUDITION!)

If you are serious about a particular few roles, we strongly encourage you to come prepare with having the sides memorized. It is not required, but it helps you stand out in a big way.

How do we evaluate the initial Audition?

Great question! Here is the form that we use (we video-record all auditions so that we can look back on them as well).

CALL BACKS (later the same day as auditions) EVERYONE is invited to callbacks

PART 1 - EVERYONE IS INVITED TO RETURN TO CALL BACKS

Singing specific songs from Alice in Wonderland Jr. with other auditioning students

The Music Director will have you sing for one or more roles using music from the actual show. The Audition Music that we will use will be songs from the show. Below is a link to parts of the songs that we will use in Call-Backs (note from this link click on “Songs” on the right hand side of the show information).

PART 2

Dance Audition

The Choreographer will take you through a basic routine and then you will perform it on your own in a group setting.

PART 3

Paired Readings and Singing

There will be additional readings with various cast member combinations. We will also have actors do some additional improvisation/acting to get a sense of the best possible role for them, as well as do some various pairing for readings and singing.

Auditions - Offering & Acceptance of Roles

1. Offering of roles

1. We will contact families and cast members via email to offer them various roles in the show, and provide some more information about the role.

2. Accepting/Declining of Roles

   Families will be contacted via email with the role(s) their child has been offered. This email has links to formally accept or decline the role. Typically 24 hours to accept/reject their role, at which time we will make additional casting/role calls/decisions and continue until all the roles are filled.
