2019 GB & JR Audition Info

Dear Understanding HST Parents,
Below are the details for NEXT Friday’s auditions (May 17th).
FIRST time JR & GB auditioning students – 9am to 10:45pm.
– Plan to arrive early so you can be inside by 9am. – Students will go to the chapel room (room that Acting B used) go upstairs close to check-in room. Room is right in front of steps. – Students will perform their song and monologue for both JR & GB directors. – Around 10:15 am returning JR & GB students will join new students for a joint dance audition. – New students will be dismissed around 10:45am.
Returning GB & JR students – 10:15am to Noon
– Plan to arrive early so you can be inside by 10:15am. – Report to SR Troupe room for joint dance audition with new students. – When dance audition is done, new students will be dismissed. – JR troupe will go to the double classroom (same room you’ve used all year) for your song/monologue auditions. – GB Troupe will stay in SR Troupe room for their song/monologue auditions.
Audition Requirements:
– 1 to 2 min. monologue (no poems) – must be memorized. – 1 to 2 min. Broadway song (chorus and verse). Directors may stop your song before you are done if they could easily assess your voice. This does not mean you sang badly, it often means you sang very well. Greatly preferred to be memorized. – Everyone will participate in a dance audition where a short dance combination is taught and then run-through with smaller groups. – Bring sheet music for your song, ideally it should be taped together and attached to stiff paper stock or cardboard. – Come in HST attire: black pants & HST shirt & shoes (no flip-flops).
MANDATORY PARENT MEETING INFO
– There are two morning meetings. – *Parents only need to attend ONE*. First starts shortly after 9am, Second starts 10:30am. The info is basically the same. – Parent meeting is on 2nd floor – room right across from the elevator (elevator is on left side of lobby past check-in booth) – Babysitting is provided by our highschool students. – Babysitting will be on 2nd floor. Turn right when you get off elevator. Room is straight ahead at end of hall. – Donations are accepted but not required. – There will be a Disney children’s movie playing and ponies/cars.
