Date: Monday, January 14, 2013
Ages: Kindergarten to Grade 12
Location: Horizon Stage (1001 Calahoo Road)
Time: 4 – 6 p.m., followed by the first rehearsal block 6:30 – 8:30 p.m.
All MissoulaChildren’s Theatre (MCT) tour shows are designed for students in Kindergarten
through Grade 12. There are roles suited for all ages and experience levels. No advance preparation or
appointment is necessary, but a smile never hurts at an audition! Students
should wear clothing that is
easy to move in. Please remember that everyone must stay the entire
two hours of the audition. (Parents may stay and watch.) Approximately 50-60 students
will be cast in the show, but sadly, there is no guarantee that everyone who
auditions will be cast. Due to time constraints,
anyone missing the initial audition will not be considered in the casting of
the show.
During
the audition, two to four Assistant Directors (ADs), ages ten and older, will
be selected to help teach and direct the show as well as take on technical
responsibilities at performance time. Their logistical help and creative ideas
are a vital part of the process, and the experience of the ADs can be just as
valuable as that of any cast member.
Please note: Rehearsals for those cast will begin
immediately after the auditions on Monday, January 14 from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30
p.m., so bringing a bag lunch for those chosen would be a great idea.
Rehearsals will then run Tuesday, January 15 to Friday, January 18 from 4 to
8:30 p.m. and Saturday, January 19 from 10 a.m. – noon. Not all children in the
cast will be called for all rehearsals. The rehearsal schedule will be
announced after the show is cast on Monday.
