Auditions

If acting is your thing, we have many opportunities year-round for you to try and make it to the stage!

For our major productions (spring musical, winter and fall plays), auditions are typically held 12-16 weeks before opening night. We also hold auditions for our Family Theatre, summer musical camp and, periodically, for our On Book! Readers Theatre productions.

What to Prepare

  • Approximately 16-32 bars (roughly a verse and chorus) from any similar musical: Contemporary musical comedy. You can choose something by the same composer (Jeanine Tesori - Thoroughly Modern Millie) or anything in a similar style. Choose something in a good range for your voice. Your recorded songs may use backing tracks or bring sheet music - both are acceptable. Find tracks on YouTube, Spotify, iTunes, etc. Backing track ideas/resources:https://www.musicalpracticetracks.com [32 bar audition songs]
  • Auditions will also consist of readings from the script (sides). The sides will be available beginning December November 12 at the SJCT Box Office, open 11am-2pm, Tuesday-Friday. Copies of the full script are also available with a $10 deposit (refundable on return of the script).
  • There will be a dance audition. Choreography will be taught on site. Please wear something you can move in.
