What To Expect At Auditions

Every auditionee must memorize and perform a Shakespearian monologue to present at the initial audition. What I'm looking for is a true understanding of the text, and I may ask you to change up your presentation without changing the words you are using, so be sure that you know the monologue well! Those types of exercises sometimes throw people off.

CALLBACKS WILL BE THE FOLLOW DAY BY INVITATION. (Callbacks are to help directors cast roles that may have specific demands or challenges. If you do not receive an invitation to callbacks, know that you have a place in the cast.)
