What to expect at auditions
Please prepare 32 bars (approximately 45 seconds-1-minute) of a song from a musical that best demonstrates your singing ability. You will need to provide an accompaniment track for your audition (a track without vocals to sing along with). A Bluetooth speaker will be provided. There will be a short dance taught at auditions; no prepared dance is required. Please wear comfortable clothes and shoes to dance in. Jazz shoes are recommended for the audition. If you have tap shoes, please bring them as well.
Readings will be held at callbacks, along with additional singing and potentially tapping.
​
Rehearsals will take place at the RRCA theatre or the Studios on Washington (11 Washington St, Monroe, MI). The rehearsal schedule will be Monday through Thursday 6-9 and potentially Saturday 10-1, so please come prepared with all rehearsal conflicts such as weekly clubs, after-school commitments, vacations planned, or anything else during the period of May 22nd-July 5th. No conflicts may be accepted from July 6th- 13th. Major holidays such as Memorial Day weekend and the 4th of July will not be rehearsal days.
