STEP 1 - Check The Time Commitment

Are you capable of fully participating?  Check the Time Commitment.  Bring up any concerns or conflicts with Mr. Von Glahn before you put the time in.  A Google calendar will be posted (like the one below) with our most updated schedule.

Get familiar with Seussical.  Read the Show Synopsis to understand the story of Seussical.   Read the Role Descriptions to understand the characters, their voice ranges, and what playing those roles will require of you.  See what songs each character sings, in full or in part, on the Songs by Character Page .  Listen to the Reference Recordings (see Google Classroom Materials) to get familiar with the songs of Seussical.  Watch video from other performances of Seussical on YouTube or other platforms.

STEP 3 - Choose A Role

Once you know the time commitment, have researched the show, and have decided that you would like to audition - choose a role that meets your availability, your acting ability, your vocal ability, and your dancing ability.  For some roles, you'll need to act out part of the script in character in your audition.  For every role, you will need to perform a song from a Broadway Musical, past or present.
