Audition Process
Each audition will be three minutes in length. You can present a song AND/OR monologue that meets the requirements below. We WILL call “time” if you go over three minutes.

Please sing one of the following pieces from The Nightmare Story, showcasing aspects of story-telling. We encourage making it your own. So express freedom of acting choices, vocal inflection, front phrasing, back phrasing, etc. Simple piano accompaniment will be available for you during your audition.
