something, ask someone!


-  Prepare your song!  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.  Plan to sing your song in character with expression.
Plan out movements and gestures that fit with the song and the
character! 


- Prepare your Acting scene.  Choose a character and scene
you think you can perform well!  Plan vocal choices, expression
, gestures and a character stance.  If you plan to audition with a
partner, be sure both you and your partner rehearse the scene
together.  Plan movement to really stand out!


- Prepare the dance portion of the audition.  An instructional
video for the dance combo will be available on the theatre site
for you to rehearse with.  Make sure you know the steps by
heart and can perform them with facial expressions and energy!
