Frequently Asked Questions about Auditions

Q:  Do I have to find my own material to audition?
A:  No.  At the audition workshops, you will be provided with audition songs (sheet music and tracks), and you will be taught the audition dance(s). 

Q:  What if I've never been on stage before, or am not a good singer/dancer/actor?
A:  Don't let that stop you from coming out.  There are many roles within the show, for many levels of talent/experience.  Come to the workshops and give it a shot!


Q:  How do auditions/casting work?
A:  There are two areas that you will be scored in through the audition...Singing, and Dance.  These scores help to make decisions about callbacks and casting.  Your acting will be scored through the singing and the dance audition.

Q:  Do I have to audition with both (singing/dance)?
A:  Yes, everyone is required to audition with singing and dance. 

Q:  Do I have to be in a Performing Arts Class to audition?
A:  No, anyone can audition as long as they are a student enrolled at Pinecrest.  
          Note:  If you are a senior and graduating early, you are not eligible to audition.

Q:  Do only juniors/seniors get leading roles?
A:  No, someone's grade is not taken into account during casting.  If an underclassmen is best for the role, they will be cast.  We have had freshmen/sophomores in leading roles before.

Q:  Does everyone who auditions get cast?
A:  Not always.  While I wish we could cast everyone who auditions, we cannot have a cast of 118 actors for our musicals.  Some years everyone who auditions does get cast.  However, some years, we have a larger turnout for auditions, and some people do not get cast.  

Q:  Does it cost anything to do the musical?
A:  We do ask that all students involved in the musical contribute a 'fair share' to help cover production costs that are not covered by ticket sales alone.  More information about the fair share will be posted shortly.
