TIPS for successful audition
:

1.    DO come prepared - pick a song NOW & practice, practice, practice.  
        Make sure you practice without the vocal track so you aren't relying on that for the lyrics.
        Work on pitch, tempo, lyrics & presentation - we want to see your personality shine!
2.     DON'T approach the artistic team following audition & don't ask for redo.  Bring your best the first time out. 
3.     DO communicate tempo and start and end points to the accomaniest - don't be shy!!
4.     DO bring music in a format easy for the accompaniest to use copied sheets taped together in a row are 
        MUCH better than thick books that won't stay open.
5.     DO be polite. 
6.     Sheet Music (16 bars) & Musical Theater songs appropriate to the character you are seeking to audition for 
        are best. Style, era & composer and what YOU can do well are all things to consider when making your 
        choice
7.     Absolutely NO VOCALS if you are using a CD or iTunes track.  "Karoake" style cds are widely available
        from Walmart or iTunes.  Sheet music is available from musicnotes.com or Pedrini's on Katella.
8.     Dress neatly - you can wear something to suggest a character or personality, but nothing "costume".
9.     Wear something easy to dance in for Dance Callbacks - close toed shoes required.
10.   See Audition Process pdf above for additional information
11.   Be confident!  God's Grace is enough!!
