CAST LIST
After several hours of deliberation, the casting committee has determined the final cast list! The list will be posted on Monday, January 18th at 8:40a.m. on the board outside Room 133.
If you are cast, the first meeting will be Tuesday at 3:20 (don't be late). The cast will read through the entire script and hopefully there will be time to have everyone measured for costumes (please wear non-bulky clothes.)
To auditioners who are not cast in a role, you will be assigned to a crew (according to the preferences on your audition info sheet.) If you are no longer interested in being involved, please speak to Miss Gartshore.
Have a good weekend... STUDY FOR YOUR EXAMS!!!

AUDITION TIPS
Hey Actors/Actresses!
It was great to see such a fantastic turn out to the Info Sessions last week! Auditions start promptly at 3:15 on Tuesday. Remember to sign up on the board outside of Room 133 because we will be auditioning people in order of signature.
Audition Tips:
Have both songs memorized, of course.
- For "#9 Opening Part 9," I would love to see you present this piece in the physicality and mind set of the character you want to play. I would encourage you to move a little and use natural and subtle gestures. (Ironically, you need to practice/rehearse moving and gesturing infront of a mirror so that when you do audition, it looks spontaneous and natural.)
- For the other piece, the ladies should take on the role of Little Red in their physicality. If you want to play Little Red, you should also sing in her belting like style. If you aren't auditioning for Little Red, sing in your most beautiful and strong style.
- The men should present "Agony" as though they are one of the Princes and sing in their best singing voice (full and lyrical.)
Please memorize one script and be prepared to present it in Character. Also, please bring Homework with you and be prepared to wait.
SEE YOU TUESDAY!!!
- Miss Gartshore (Your Director, Producer, Musical Director, Choreographer and More)
