STUDENTS WITH ALL LEVELS OF EXPERIENCE ARE WELCOME IN OUR PROGRAM!
We do consider prior experience in auditions, but what's more important to us is skill, enthusiasm, directability and a fierce work ethic!

We will arrange your audition day/time and send you audition materials as soon as we receive your registration and deposit!

REHEARSALS
* Rehearsals will begin the week of May 17! We will meet 2-3 times a week for a few hours at a time. Sundays, and Tuesdays or Wednesdays, with possibly an occasional private rehearsal when you're available.

All indoor, in-person rehearsals leading up to tech will be masked, and while we are inside we will be observing a 3-foot distance rule.
​
* Other safety measures may be in place. We will have to follow legal restrictions as well as regulations from our venue.
