Kid Audition For Singing in Musical "School of Rock"
Looking to cast youth actors ages 8-14 for the Musical "School of Rock". Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: Show Information: Rock got no reason, rock got no rhyme… You better get me to school on time! Andrew Lloyd Webber’s School of Rock – The Musical is a two-hour, two-act show, based on the hit movie. The tuner follows Dewey Finn, a failed, wannabe rock star who decides to earn an extra bit of cash by posing as a substitute teacher at a prestigious prep school. There he turns a class of straight–A pupils into a guitar-shredding, bass-slapping, mind-blowing rock band. But can he get them to the Battle of the Bands without their parents and the school’s headmistress finding out? Additional info: There is a production fee for youth performers if cast. Show dates: January 29 - February 8, 2026 What to Prepare: Please come to the audition with a completed audition form and signed outdate calendar. Please prepare both general vocal cuts from “If Only You Would Listen” and “Stick it to the Man." If auditioning for Summer, please also prepare the vocal cut for “Time to Play." If auditioning for Zach, please sing and play guitar for the “School of Rock part 2” selection. There will be an accompanist provided at the audition. Small Group Rehearsals (Kids & Dewey): Rehearsals will begin in October, held twice a week on Mondays & Wednesdays from 6:30–8:30 pm. These rehearsals will focus on combining the individual music parts with the group, as well as working on choreography and scenes with Dewey and the kids. Full Cast Rehearsals: Starting in November, full cast rehearsals will begin and will take place on Mondays and Wednesdays from 6:00–9:00 pm, as well as Sundays from 1:00–4:00 pm. The intention is to dismiss the kids between 8:00–8:30 pm for most weekday rehearsals. If interested, please apply.
