INSTRUCTIONS

To audition, prepare one song selection, no longer than one verse and a chorus, and less than one minute in length of holiday sheet music either mainstream media or musical genre. Use your selection to showcase your vocal and storytelling ability. For this audition, please provide a backing track to ensure your best performance. Singing a cappella will not be permitted. *If you have a specific song you would like to perform as part of a cabaret, you may use this as your audition or in addition to it. 

​

AUDITION FORM GUIDELINES

For the audition form you will need:

• a current headshot (to upload)

• a current resume (to upload) *We encourage auditioners to list as many experiences and additional skills as they would like to share.

• a list of potential and actual conflicts for the rehearsal and performance time frame

• *if submitting a virtual audition* ~ a prepared song according to the above listed criteria

​

If you are auditioning in person, please upload your headshot and resume HERE on our audition form prior to your audition. This can be done on your computer or phone at any point before you walk in the room to audition. If requested, an accompanist will be provided but will not transpose music. Singing a cappella is not permitted, but you may use an accompaniment track.

​

Some of those that audition will be selected to return to an invitational callback in Ogden, UT. Additional reading, singing, and some movement may be done at callbacks. Not being asked to attend callbacks doesn't necessarily mean you won't be cast. 

​

If you are unable to attend in-person auditions and would like to submit a virtual audition, you may do so through the audition form HERE. 

​

VIRTUAL /  SELF-TAPE AUDITION GUIDELINES

All virtual submissions will be submitted via the AUDITION FORM. In addition to the audition form guidelines:

• Please SLATE at the beginning of your tape (i.e. state your full name and what monologue from what show you are presenting)

• Please FRAME from the top of your head to just below your shoulder.

• It would be helpful to tape in a quiet room with little or no background noise with the most advantageous lighting you can manage. We understand this can be challenging, so do the best you can.

• The length of your entire video, including slate, should be no more than 90 seconds.

​

REHEARSALS & PERFORMANCES​

 

Rehearsals are on Tuesday, Wednesday, and/or Thursday with occasional Saturdays dependent on actor availability. Performances are Thursday and Friday at 7 PM with Saturday shows at 2 PM and 7 PM.

 

We understand a performer's life is full of commitments, so we intentionally schedule each show's rehearsal calendar based on the performers' given availability at time of audition to limit if not eliminate missed rehearsals. Because of this scheduling, you may be called once one week or three times another. Regardless, we expect our performers to work on their music/scenes on their own to make the most of our limited rehearsals. That being said, we are willing to schedule additional rehearsals if a cast member requests it (within reason).

​

ABOUT OUR SHOWS

 

We favor the cabaret style similar to a revue or in-concert and arrange all music specifically for each cast (and live combo if available) to allow the music and performers to really shine. Part of our mission is to revitalize the arts in the community through education and cultural access and to create a safe place for anyone to explore their relationship with the arts. These shows are designed to do exactly that.

​

Often times a performer is not cast in a role because they do not fit the director's vision which we understand and respect. What this can mean is that someone who may be cast as Cinderella may never get the chance to play a Wicked Step-Sister (or vice-versa) due to the constraints of casting a full-fledged musical. So what we do is something a little different, something that allows us to cast with or against the standard and give performers a chance to do something they may otherwise not have the opportunity to do - maybe it's a role you are not the right gender for, maybe you direct shows but rarely get to be in them, or maybe there's a wonderful song you would love to perform but probably never will because the show it is from is simply terrible. This is why we do what we do and hope you will join us!
