BEFORE THE AUDITION:
-- Double Check the performance schedule before you audition. It's disappointing to audition, get a part and then find that rehearsals interfere with classes or that you'll be out of town during the 2 weeks the play goes on. Rehearsals and performances occur weeknights and on weekends and generally begin within a week of being cast.
-- If possible, read the script and familiarize yourself with the characters. Knowing the characters will help you to decide for which part or parts to audition. Scripts can be borrowed from the theater.
AT THE AUDITION:
-- Be on time!
-- Be respectful of Social Distancing. Stay at least 6 feet away from other people and make sure there are at least 2 chairs between you and anyone else when sitting in the theatre.
-- Wear clothes that are reasonable for the audition and are comfortable.
-- Fill out an Audition Sheet. If this is your first show, then great! Awesome to have you. If you have done shows before it helps to bring a list with you so you do not have to try to remember on the spot. If you have done a lot of shows, only list those that are most recent, biggest roles, and/or from similar styles of shows.
-- Be courteous and professional. Remember you never get a second chance to make a first impression, and your audition lasts from the minute you walk in the auditorium until the moment you leave.
-- Most auditions consist of "cold readings" from the scripts. That means you will be asked to read some of the dialogue from the show, sometimes with other people sometimes by yourself. Don't worry if you stumble over words, we're looking for energy and character choices.
-- Relax; auditions do not have to be a painful process. Give it your best shot and HAVE FUN!
"It is the policy of the Warehouse Living Arts Center to cast regardless of race, color or disability. Casting of actors in roles is done on the basis of acting skill and ability demonstrated during the audition process, as well as on the actor’s appropriateness and suitability (physical, vocal, mental, emotional) for available roles. Being invited to an audition does not guarantee that a person will be cast. Occasionally, a cast may be expanded to accommodate a large turnout of talent. "
