WHAT: Audition now to join our program that offers after school musical theater training and classes and performance opportunities in our mainstage productions to kids/children ages 8-18 FOR FREE. We don’t require auditionees to prepare anything in advance!

  • Once auditionees arrive on their audition date, they’ll sign in, receive a name tag, and join others in the room.
  • Together as a group they will learn 16-32 bars of a song and dance number from our musical director and choreographer then perform this in smaller groups.
  • These are closed auditions, so all Parents/Guardians must drop off their auditionee and come back to pick them up afterward.
  • We will invite some auditionees to callbacks via email, during which they will once again (as a group) learn 16-32 bars of a song and dance and then read scenes with someone else in the room.
  • Auditionees will then receive a either an email inviting them to audition again, or a phone call welcoming them to the RYET programt
