My child wants to participate in your current production but is unable to attend a dress rehearsal or a show date because we will be out of town, can she still sign up?
Dress rehearsals and show dates are must dates and are required for the entire cast; please join us next time when those dates are open for you.
My child is nervous about auditioning, what happens during audition?
Most children are nervous about auditioning. First register and receive an audition time slot. On audition day arrive at least 15 minutes prior to your audition time. Come prepared with 16 measures of a song that is from the current show or another musical that is age appropriate. We don’t have time for an entire song but you may be asked to sing more than 16 measures. You are encouraged to bring sheet music if you have it, please leave the CD’s at home. Our music director will have sheet music from our current show and will be using a piano. You can even choose to sing “Happy Birthday”. In addition to singing, your child will read lines from the script that the director will choose for your child and your child will learn a dance routine that they will perform for the staff.
If we live outside of Rockford, can we still participate?
Absolutely!
Can a parent stay during rehearsals?
