TIPS FOR AUDITIONING FOR A MUSICAL

Before the Audition

-  Get to know the show!  Read the script, listen to the songs, watch the movie, etc.

-  Read the audition materials carefully!  If you don’t understand something, ask someone!

-  Prepare your song!  Choose one of the cuttings you will be successful at.  Be sure to practice and plan to sing with accompaniment.  If you don’t know how to pronounce something, look it up!  Make sure you understand the context of the song: is it funny or dramatic, etc.  Plan to sing your song in character with expression.  Plan out movements and gestures that fit with the song and the character!

-  Don’t forget to proofread your audition form for errors!

- Sign up for an audition time!  Write the time down so you will remember!

Also . . . it would help to be familiar with ALL of the song cuttings just in case the directors ask you to sing something else!
