Sides are the section of the script that you will be asked to read from for your audition. You do not need to memorize the sides, but you should be familiar with the text, have made clear choices about the character's wants and actions. Reading the entire script is a good idea. If there is another character you would like to audition for, please let us know HERE! Everyone is being considered for all roles. Once you are in the audition room, you will read your side with a reader while Jessica, the director, watches. Jessica will likely give you an adjustment and have you read the scene again. This is in no way a reflection of your performance, just a way to figure out the actor/director dynamic. Please note, our intention is to have actors play several roles in this production, with the exception of the person who plays Suzanne.
If cast, the cost to participate is $600 . For those enrolled in our High School Program, the cost is $400.
