Audition Information for the 2019 Summer Camp Production of "INTO THE WOODS!"
Auditions will be June 9 from 1 - 5PM at DCPAC
Students can choose two songs to prepare for auditions. Below are links to the songs that we would like to hear from each character. You do not have to prepare a song for every character you are interested in. The songs that we chose have a wide range and will allow you to be vocally considered for any character.
Please come warmed up and ready to sing. Singing auditions will be first, followed by a brief acting warm up and then you will be asked to read sides that you have prepared (also below). After everyone has read we will begin callbacks where we specifically call you for roles you are being considered for based on your singing and acting audition.
Although this is an audition we do use it as an educational opportunity for students to help improve their audition skills. They shouldn’t feel nervous as we are fans and want them to do the best they can. Into the woods is a unique play where there is no ensemble and only roles so every child participating in the program will get a role. Our concept is different from the typical production of Into the Woods which allows for even more opportunities for students to create moments on stage!
