Audition Requirements:

Please bring in any song of your choice to sing. I may have you sing a verse from a piece in the show, so if you would like to get familiar with them beforehand, the options would be:

For Women:
Astonishing (end of song starting at "Here I go and there's no turning back"
Days of Plenty (second verse, starting at "But I refuse to feel tragic"
Some Things Are Meant to Be (First verse, singing both Beth and Jo's part)

For Men:
Take a Chance on Me (Last verse, starting at "we could live" after they have "boxed")
More Than I am (First verse starting at beginning of song)

Callbacks:

Callbacks will be Thursday, September 6th. Not everyone and every role will have callbacks, just for further pairing of some people in different parts. We will be doing some reading and more singing, I will post 2 or 3 scenes from the show as we get closer.
