Auditions will be held in 1-1/2 hour blocks where each auditioner will get to sing, read from sides, and learn a dance combination in consideration for that show's full production workshop.

After the audition:
Generally within a week after the final audition day you will receive an email letting you know if you are accepted into the workshop production.

1) If you are invited into the workshop, CONGRATULATIONS!  At that time, on receipt of the casting email, the remainder of tuition is due.

2) If you are not cast and invited into the workshop you will be refunded the deposit and we encourage you to audition again in the future.

3) If you are offered a role that you stated on your audition form that you would accept, but then choose not to participate, your audition deposit is non-refundable as we will use that for the time and resources we will need to use to recast the role.

 

4) Once you’ve paid the balance, you have accepted the role. There are no refunds or credits.

 

To register, fill out the registration form below and click "Submit" to pay the audition deposit.  

 

Once that is done, you will receive a confirmation email with all of the information you need to have a wonderful audition.
