AUDITION MATERIALS
There will be three parts to the audition:
-
Singing a cut of the song, "Over the Rainbow” OR “If I Only Had a Brain”
-
Learning and doing a short dance combination that will be taught at the audition to the song “The Merry Old Land of Oz”
-
Reading a short scene
-
The songs and lines do not need to be memorized (though that’s extra points), however students are expected to familiarize themselves with the materials before going into the individual auditions.
-
We will review both songs with everyone as a group before going into the audition.
-
Students will be asked which audition scene they would like to read, they may be asked to read additional scenes so please review each one.
Audition Materials can be found here.
