Children will be asked to read a short passage of dialogue to sing one verse of a song of their choosing and participate in a couple of group activities. (Please bring sheet music for the song.) Please prepare a song in English. (In the style of Gilbert & Sullivan encouraged.) Please bring sheet music for your song. You may also be asked to read a short passage of dialogue in an individual or group scene following the music portion of the audition. Rehearsal Dates: Tuesdays & Thursdays September 10th through till December 13th first performance. There will be three rehearsals at the beginning and three or four at the end that involve everyone. Thus, playing two 10-rehearsal characters would likely involve a total of 13 rehearsals, not 20. If interested, please apply.
