About the project: Sha la la, Joseph, you’re doing fine! You and your dreamcoat, are ahead of your time!” One of the most enduring shows of all time, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, the musical follows the preferred son Joseph and is told entirely through song with the help of a main character, the Narrator. Additional info: Grades 4-7: Youth performers in these grades will be part of the youth chorus. Grades 8-12: Youth performers in these grades will join the general ensemble. For youth performers, please understand that regardless of the youth performer’s experience with musical theater, vocal or dance experience, or other related experience, we cannot make exceptions to the minimum age to participate or to the youth/adult ensemble split. Audition Schedule/What to Prepare: All auditioners should prepare and sing 32 bars (about 30 seconds) of a musical theater-style song of their choice. An accompanist will be provided. Please bring your sheet music in a three-ring binder for the accompanist. No acapella singing will be allowed. If auditioners are comfortable operating a backing track ON THEIR OWN for their vocal audition directors will have a speaker set up for that purpose. The auditioner must be comfortable navigating the technology and the timing of the track without assistance from the production team. Parents will not be in the room with their youth auditioner for vocal auditions, so if youth are bringing a backing track they will need to operate that technology without any parent assistance. Parents are required to attend the audition with their youth to hear important information about rehearsals and performances. Callbacks will be Thursday, March 20 from 6:30-9:30 pm. Callbacks are by invitation only. If interested, please apply by 5 pm on Friday, March 14, 2025.
