Performers (ages 10 to 20) are invited to audition for principle roles and the highly-featured ensemble. Younger children (ages 7 & up) will be seen for roles in a children’s chorus. Those aged 10 – 20 who are auditioning should: - Plan to attend only one night. - Be somewhat familiar with the show, its themes, and music. - Prepare two contrasting songs (1 ballad, 1 up tempo), preferably written after 1975. - Bring sheet music in the correct keys, hole-punched in a three-ring binder. (Singers will not be permitted to sing *a cappella*) - Bring a list of conflicts between April 24 and June 26 (including school concerts, lessons, practices, and games). Younger children (ages 7 – 11) auditioning for the children’s chorus should: - Prepare a short song to sing (approximately one-minute long) and bring piano sheet music. - Bring a list of conflicts between April 24 and June 26 (including school concerts, lessons, practices, and games).
