All auditioners should prepare a song, in English, which you feel best shows the directors your abilities.  If you are  auditioning for a principal role, you should select a song which best shows the directors your suitability for the role(s) for which you would like to be considered.  Keep your audition material to under two-minutes (i.e. select a portion of your audition song which best shows your range and vocal proficiency).  You may prepare a selection from Princess Ida.  Bring a copy of the sheet music in the proper key.  An accompanist will be provided.  You may also be asked to read dialogue.  There will be no dance audition.

If you are interested in a non-performing position (backstage or offstage), come on either of the above dates for an interview and introduction to the group. 

If you are unable to audition on any of these dates, or if you are interested in participating offstage or backstage but cannot come on any audition day, contact Stacy at (347) 731-8012 or stacyb802@yahoo.com prior to September 7.

Please bring a headshot or other recent picture to the auditions.  Be prepared to let us know any weekday evening or weekend scheduling conflicts you have during the rehearsal period. 

Call-Backs for Principal Roles will be held Monday, September 13, 7:00 p.m. – 10:00 p.m. and Tuesday, September 14, 7:00 p.m. – 10:00 p.m.  If you are auditioning for a principal role, please keep these dates free as we may not be able to consider you for a principal role if you cannot attend your designated callback date(s). 

Rehearsal Schedule:  Company rehearsals will be held on Monday and Thursday evenings from 7:00 p.m. – 10:00 p.m. although the entire cast may not be called for every rehearsal.  There will also be two weekend rehearsal days for the full company during the rehearsal period.  Principals will also rehearse at additional times to be determined.  The read-through rehearsal and kick-off party will both be on Saturday, September 18 in the early afternoon – please set aside this date if you intend to participate in the production.
