There are about 100 roles available this summer, including many non-singing 
parts.  We are trying something new -- Shakespeare in the summer, Romeo & 
Juliet directed by Josh Theilan.  Again, this year, we'll be moving one show 
onto the main stage, URINETOWN!  The remaining productions will be staged in 
our outdoor Straw Hat Theatre.  Hope to see you at auditions!

AUDITION INFORMATION
Auditions each Saturday are by appointment, beginning at 1 p.m. - through 4 
p.m. Call 440-964-3396 to schedule your appointment.

Audition sessions each Sunday are Cattle Calls. Session begins at 1 p.m. - 
through 5 p.m. You may arrive anytime, but I suggest being here no later 
than 4:15.

Please arrive at least 15 minutes prior to your appointment to fill out 
paperwork, or you may download an audition form at www.artcenternews.com.  
Fill it out and bring it with you to save time.

Warmup rooms in the back music wing are first-come, first-serve. All persons 
must participate in a dance / movement session, which will take place 
immediately following your vocal audition. Wear comfortable clothing and 
shoes.

For your audition, please prepare a song in the style of the shows you are 
auditioning for. You may sing two short songs. Bring sheet music in the key 
you will be singing. An accompanist will be provided. If you have never 
auditioned for a production at the Ashtabula Arts Center it is suggested you 
prepare a 45-60 second monologue / reading. Those who have auditioned may 
also prepare a monologue, but it is not necessary.  There also will be sides 
from the productions for you to read, if necessary.  For Romeo and Juliet, 
feel free to have something prepared from the show to audition with or there 
will be sides for you to read.


Please bring your conflict dates with you -- as you know them at the time of 
your audition.  Be specific.  College students make sure you know when you 
will be home and when you will be returning to school.

Thanks and hope to see you at auditions!
