PREPARATION
Please arrive fifteen minutes early to fill out an Audition FormPlease be prepared to stay approximately one hour. All parts require some level of movement. Please dress comfortably as there will be a movement component to the audition.
Auditioners should prepare one song of their choice to reflect their voice type. We would like to suggest that you choose a piece that suits the musical style of Peter Pan, however, your song should highlight your abilities and strengths.
We would also like auditioners to prepare a joke or a page from your favourite book to tell our creative team. It does not have to be memorized, but we are looking for your ability to tell a story and really perform for us, not necessarily to be the funniest!
Please bring a headshot to the audition for our reference purposes only. It does not need to be a professional picture.
Remember, it is your audition and you want to showcase yourself!
We will have the ability to play recorded accompaniment through a CD player, MP3 player, iPhone or iPod. There are plenty of instrumental tracks available on YouTube and iTunes.
