This year our auditions are happening ONLINE! This means you will use your phone or computer to film a short video of yourself. Please read through all of the following instructions carefully before proceeding to our audition platform.
REHEARSAL & PERFORMANCE SCHEDULE
Please be sure to review the rehearsal and performance schedule by clicking HERE. If you are not able to commit to being on time and in attendance of all rehearsals, this may prevent you from being able to participate. Please talk to Pastor Kendra if you need clarification.
ACTING AUDITIONS
Scroll to the bottom of this page to find all the audition scripts for the various roles. The roles and descriptions for each are listed on Audition Magic (more info on that below).
SINGING AUDITIONS
For vocal auditions, you can use accompaniment or sing a cappella if you need to, choosing any song you’re comfortable with. Please keep your vocal audition one minute or less. EVERYONE that would like to join the cast is encouraged to submit a singing audition since almost ALL actors will be in the choir.
RECORDING YOUR AUDITION
Be sure to hold your phone horizontally when recording your video. Do a test run, and then watch it back for any sound issues, mistakes, or anything else you might want to change.
KID AUDITIONS
All children planning to participate in the production will need to submit a singing audition, any favorite song will do! If your child is ages 6-11 and would like to participate, it is required that a parent volunteers on the Kids Team to serve with our leaders (if you the parent are participating in the cast, you are exempt from serving on the Kids Team).
CREW REGISTRATION
If you’re interested in joining our crew and working “behind the scenes” doing anything from stage crew, to makeup team, costume team, set and construction, and more, then you will still follow this same process by creating your profile on Audition Magic and then selecting the “Crew” folder and whichever corresponding team you’re wanting to join. Headshot is still required, but no video submission is needed.
AUDITION MAGIC
Below you will see a link that will take you to “Audition Magic” which is the platform we’ll be using. Please note that each individual must have a different email to create their profile. This means that kids who are auditioning will need to use either another parent’s email, or create one of their own. Follow the instructions below, and feel free to contact Pastor Kendra at any point if you need assistance.
