4th & 5th Grade Audition Information

If your student does NOT want a lead role in this show, please register your student then have them come to their first rehearsal on September 16th(4th grade) or September 18th(5th grade) and they will automatically get a part in the show. All kids will be cast.
If your student would like to be cast in one of the Lead Roles for this show, they MUST take part in the audition process.
Audition Date: Thursday, September, 11th from 3pm-6pm
What to prepare for Auditions: Please come prepared to sing the song below. You will sing it by yourself in front of the teachers. Smile, have fun and do your best to show us what you can do with your character on stage.
What to expect at Auditions: You will be with your friends in a holding room (where you may practice/rehearse your song) then we will call you in the audition room in groups of 3 at which time you will sing your song by yourself for the teachers. We will then give you a paper with some lines to read for a certain character. You will have time to practice reading and acting out these lines, then you will come back in front of the teachers and read them with the other characters in your scene.
On Tuesday/Thursday, September 16th/18th, which is the first rehearsals, we will continue the audition process with a dance audition that the entire cast will learn and perform together and do more reading and singing with certain students.
The Cast List will come out after September 20th. From that point on rehearsals will be on Tuesdays (4th grade only) & Thursdays(5th grade only) from 3-4:30. If you are cast as a lead, you may need to stay till 5:30 on your rehearsal days.
