Audition Info:
To audition, begin by scheduling an appointment online starting July 23 or by calling extension 222. You must prepare and memorize a monologue that is no longer than 2 minutes. Additionally, bring a recent photo to leave with the theatre. Arrive 15 minutes prior to your appointment to complete the necessary paperwork. While bringing a resume is encouraged, it is not mandatory. If you choose, you may prepare up to 60 seconds of any song. New Stage Theatre will provide a CD player, iPod deck, and keyboard, but you may also bring your own accompanist since the theatre will not provide one. It is important to avoid singing a cappella; instead, use accompaniment from a CD, iPod, or piano player. Finally, note that auditions will be strictly timed, with a maximum of 3 minutes allotted per actor.
