Auditions

Auditions will be held on Wednesday, October 17th 6–7:30 PM at Arlington Center for the Arts. There are a few things we need you to do to prepare:

Sign up for an audition time.
Auditions on Wednesday will just cover music. No preparation is required. We will read scenes at the first rehearsal on the 22nd.
Print, fill out and bring with you the following forms:
- Audition Form: This is a short survey with information so we can know more about you.
- Health Form: Health information so we are prepared for any issues during rehearsals and shows.
- Liability Form: Liability waivers
- Behavior Form: An agreement defining our behavioral standards
Pay your registration fee(s) via PayPal (on the right) or bring your payment with you to auditions on October 17th.

First Rehearsal

Our first rehearsal will be Monday, October 22nd from 5–7 PM at ACT. We would love to have all parents attend our parents meeting at 6:30 PM. We need to recruit Committee Heads for Cast Party, T-shirts, Publicity, Tickets/box office, Raffle, Program, Costumes/makeup, Props, Sets, Bake Sale, and Run Crew.

We look forward to seeing you then.

Registration Details

As is now our standard policy, final casting decisions will not be made until after the first rehearsals. The staff will use this time to get to know the cast and explore the show.

Please note the rehearsal schedule for the show. Your child will not be required to attend every rehearsal, only those where they are called. You can look at the schedule links for last summer's productions to see how this works. Absences are strongly discouraged throughout the production, and attendance is mandatory from the beginning of dress rehearsals on, so please plan accordingly. All actors and at least one parent are also expected to attend the first meeting on Monday, October 22nd, where we will share more details about the production and have sign-ups for volunteer committees.

All payments or payment arrangements must be secured before auditions. There are no refunds after the start of auditions. Although we sometimes have a waitlist, bringing actors into the production after auditions presents numerous challenges for the staff and does not give the late arrivals a fair start to the production.
