What?
  • Live Audition on stage in the large theatre with a backing track which is provided below. Sign up for a date and time on the Music Room Door. 
  • Video Audition is also available for those who need that security or convenience.  Record video with backing track playing in the background.  Avoid background noise or visual distractions.  Submit videos to Jmac through Teams or by uploading to unlisted Youtube and send the link.
  • Live vs. Video
    • ​Live is always PREFERRED but, if that is going to discourage you from being involved, you have the video option.
    • If choosing between 2 relatively equal auditions but one is live vs. video, we would choose the live person first.
    • We know you will be nervous!  Therefore, you have more forgiveness in a live audition vs. a video where you can record multiple times with no audience.
    • If you asked us the directors to decide for you, we choose LIVE.  :)
​Why?
  • It gives the casting team the information they need to place actors in the best role to create the production the way they envision it.
  • It shows integrity and commitment to something you love.
  • It allows you to build experience, confidence, and perseverance by putting yourself out there on a stage.
​When?
  • Live auditions run from Nov. 29 - Dec. 3, 2021 - mostly at lunch hours.
  • Deadline for video submission is Wednesday Dec. 1 by 5:00pm.
​How?
  • Look at the character descriptions.
  • Look at and consider the number of songs by character.
  • Sign up on the Music Room door for an audition time slot.
  • Fill out the online audition form with the correct information prior to your audition date.
  • Use the audition audio files to help you prepare one of the audition full songs or clip.
  • Us the lyrics for audition songs & clips files to help you prepare one of the audition pieces.
  • Your actually audition will be done with the backing (or accmp) track.
  • PRACTICE!  PRACTICE!  PRACTICE! - Singing your audition in front of other people before audition day is a GREAT idea.
​Results?
  • We will do our best to pot the cast list within 1 week of completing auditions.
  • A cast list will be posted on the Music Room door and an audio announcement will be made about the list being available.
  • You may or may not get the exact role you wanted.  There are no small roles on small people.  be supportive of your fellow performers and pour yourself into your role 1000% no matter what it is.
