AUDITION PREPARATION
Once on This Island JR auditions will be held on Saturday, May 4, 2019. Auditions are for role placement only, as each registered participant will be part of the production.
Please prepare approximately 16-32 bars of any song from Once on This Island JR. You may chose the song and the cut of the song with which you wish to audition. An accompanist will be provided and will have sheet music already. You do not need to bring sheet music, but you do need to be prepared to let the accompanist know what song you will be singing and where you would like him to start and stop. Your audition piece should be memorized.
Everyone will learn a short dance number with our choreographer so come prepared to move on the dance floor. You may or may not be asked to do a cold reading from the script as part of your audition. You can expect the audition process to last approximately 30-45 minutes.
Below is a plot synopsis and perusal of the script, including all musical numbers, that you are welcome to review ahead of time. Also below are recordings of each song from the show. Everyone will receive a script and rehearsal CD the day of auditions.
If you have questions, please let us know. We look forward to seeing you soon!
