In person auditions will have first consideration of casting; however, performers traveling further than 90 miles from The Henegar may submit a virtual audition. If you would like to submit a virtual audition please submit a Headshot, Theatre Resume, a Vocal Selection from the show, and Dance Reel (if applicable to the roles you are auditioning for) by Saturday, June 13th. Please include if there are any specific roles you’d like to be considered for, if you would be willing to accept any other role, if you have any conflicts throughout the run, and if you would require housing if available.
Every eligible actor 18 and up will receive a paid travel stipend at the end of the show’s run. The Henegar Center, when needed, will offer equity guest contracts to members of the union and contracts for professional actors. The Henegar is an Equal Opportunity Theatre, and we encourage performers of all ethnicities to audition. Please do not disqualify yourself on the basis of type, race, or physicality.
Music from the show and choreography will be taught at the night of auditions. Some performers may be asked to attend callbacks on the same night of their audition. Vocal sides will be sent in advance of the audition date, and after we’ve confirmed your appointment.
