AUDITIONS
3rd-7th graders participate in a three part audition including: acting, singing and dance. An audition packet will be emailed to all participants two weeks prior to auditions. We also hold an optional auditon prep where actors can meet the directors and learn the choreography. K-2nd graders do not audition. They will be automatically placed in roles and will be given lines and solos as they demonstrate desire and readiness. Their rehearsals begin after the older kids and are a little shorter.
REHEARSALS
Actors are expected to attend rehearsals each week and stay for the entire time. In the event that you need to miss a rehearsal, you are responsible for catching up what you missed. Actors should be practicing lines, lyrics and choreography every week in between rehearsals. Leads and soloists will have 1-2 additional rehearsals outside of their regular time. The actor playing Annie will need to attend 2 rehearsals per week.
PERFORMANCES
Each cast will have two performances and two dress rehearsals the week of the show. Some families choose to only participate in one performance. That is fine, just let us know ahead of time. Parents are not required to volunteer or assist with the production, although we appreciate those who do!
