Please read all info carefully before registering.
Entry into each workshop session is by audition only. Each workshop
session will consist of studying and participation in LIVE performances.
By the way, we cast first-timers in almost every show, so if this your first time auditioning for us (or for anything!), don't worry! We'll help you have your best audition!
Tuition:
Non-members $895 ($250 audition deposit, $645 workshop tuition)
YST Members $795 ($200 audition deposit, $595 workshop tuition)
Auditions will be held in 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.
ALL auditioners 18 and under will pay a deposit with the registration form below. This deposit is non-refundable except under the conditions listed under "After the audition" below.

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.
