non-traditional casting.  Actors will be cast solely on the basis of

a role.

WHAT TO PREPARE:

Grades 6-12

One selection in the style of the show up to a minute in length (ie- one
verse and one chorus).
Accompanist provided (no acapella singing) Bring complete sheet music.

Grades 1-5

Please learn the following lyrics from Havin’ A Hunch (we will help you
practice a little before you sing alone) – Understanding the words you are
singing is a huge bonus. Parents, we encourage you to explain the lyrics to
your kids before they audition.

*Have you ever had a hunch you should follow your nose.*
*Then you have a sudden hunch you should follow your toes.*
*Soon a sneaky hunch is whispering better go straight.*
*And before you know it oh it’s so late late late late.*

Everyone please bring headshot or photo (Resume optional) and fill out the
audition form, found at https://heightsyouththeatre.com/auditions/, prior
to coming to audition. Also, please list all conflicts on the audition form
or come prepared with your conflicts to complete a form at auditions.

We will be looking for the following when you audition:

   - Ability to sing consistently on pitch and with expression
   - A solid sense of beat and rhythm
   - Overall preparation (knowledge of song and self-presentation)
