What to Expect at Auditions
Come ready to share your voice and your personality! We’ll ask you to sing something you’ve prepared and tell us a quick story or joke—nothing fancy, just something that lets us get to know you.
We love creating music together, so we’ll also teach everyone a short section of a song from the show to sing as a group. An accompanist will be provided.
If you have a headshot and résumé, please bring them along—but if you don’t, that’s okay too. Most importantly, we want you to feel relaxed, safe, and confident. This is your time to shine, and we can’t wait to see what you bring!
CAN’T ATTEND AN AUDITION- Submit a video audition to [email protected] Videos must be received by September 9th.
Not a Performer? No Problem!
We welcome participants in every aspect of theatre—onstage or behind the scenes. You can help bring our story to life through tech theatre, sets, costumes, props, and more.

We can’t wait to see you thrive—onstage and off!
More about the show:
At its heart, Shrek the Musical is a joyful celebration of belonging. Filled with unforgettable characters who discover that our differences are what make us extraordinary, the story reminds us that everyone deserves to be seen, valued, and included. At Theatre Agape, this message comes to life through our inclusive cast, where artists with and without developmental disabilities create, perform, and grow together. More than a musical, Shrek is an invitation to celebrate the beauty of every individual and the power of a community where everyone has a place.
