"Moana Jr." Show Needs Boys and Girls
Looking for kids and teens for the "Moana Jr." Show. Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. Additional info: They’ll start by singing the audition song, which you can find above; only these songs will be allowed during auditions. After that, they’ll read short scenes from the script with different partners so we can see how they interact and communicate. Directors will also teach a short piece of choreography right there in the room. It’s simple, fun, and designed for all levels. They may be asked to sing a little more during the audition, but there’s no need to prepare anything extra. They guide them through it step-by-step. They are not asking for any character accents. What they’re looking for is clear storytelling, expressive acting, and a willingness to try. Please plan to arrive about 10 minutes before the scheduled audition time so we can take care of check-in and any quick paperwork. Parents and guardians are allowed to remain in the lobby during auditions; it should take 45-55 minutes for each group.
