Admissions: Audition Requirements: Musical Theatre
The Musical Theatre audition has three parts. First, the applicant will perform, with expression, 16 bars of a song from the musical theatre repertory or another similar style. Please provide either sheet music or a recording with only music (no words) to play for your song. An accompanist will be provided. Please do not perform a rock-and-roll style or a rap song.
Secondly, the student will be taught a short dance combination and be asked to perform it. Thirdly, the student will be interviewed. Jurists will be looking for the student to demonstrate a strong aptitude in two of the three disciplines: dance, vocal, and acting. The song should spotlight the vocal strengths and range of the student as well as his/her acting abilities. The dance should spotlight the student’s ability to learn and accurately perform a new combination with proper technique.
