SPRING 2021 AUDITIONS!


✩SPRING 2021 AUDITIONS!!✩

Welcome back! We're so excited to hold two new shows!

No Exit, dir. Bankston Creech '21
Twelfth Night, dir. Linden Wright '22

Please read through, even if you have auditioned for SPT before! Things are going to look different this semester!

BOTH SHOWS ARE OPEN TO BOTH ON-CAMPUS AND OFF-CAMPUS STUDENTS, AS THE SHOWS WILL BE VIRTUAL

IF YOU ARE ON TEMPORARY LEAVE, YOU ARE ALSO ABLE TO AUDITION FOR A SHOW

Where/When

Auditions will be held on February 10th and 11th from 5:30pm-9:30pm EST. They will be held over Zoom.

Callbacks will be held on the 13th over Zoom.
*A callback does not guarantee that you'll be cast. Likewise, you can still be cast even if you are not called back.

Sign ups & Audition Form

You may sign up for one 15-minute slot using the link below. If you are auditioning with a partner, please sign up for two back-to-back time slots.

The zoom link for your audition should be copied into your confirmation email. If not, please email one of the people listed below and they can help you.

If you cannot make auditions but want to audition, please email one of the people listed below and we can try to find a way for you to audition!

Sign up link

Once you have signed up, please fill out the following audition form. This is normally the form we ask you to fill out at the audition itself.

Please be as honest as possible when filling it out so we can ensure that you are comfortable in your role and available for all rehearsals that your stage manager(s) schedule.

Audition Materials

Audition materials are at the link below. Please select ONE MONOLOGUE and ONE DIALOGUE from those provided to perform. You can choose to audition for one or both shows but your monologue and dialogue must come from two different shows, even if you are auditioning only for one.

For example, you may perform a monologue from No Exit and a dialogue from Twelfth Night, but you are not able to perform both a monologue AND a dialogue from No Exit, even if you are only interested in auditioning for that play.

Spring 2021 Materials link


Things to know for auditions this semester:

  • You do not need to have a partner to perform the dialogue, if you are auditioning alone a stage manager will read the dialogue with you.
  • Auditioning for both shows means you could be placed in either show. You will not be placed in both shows.
  • You do not need to memorize the monologue and dialogue you are performing. However, it is a good idea to prepare and practice them beforehand.
  • Feel free to arrive to your Zoom meeting a few minutes in advance in case the person ahead of you has finished early. You will be placed in a waiting room until the proteams are ready to see you.
  • Please be as honest as possible when filling out the audition form to ensure you will be comfortable in your role and available for the rehearsals that your proteam schedules.
  • A callback does not guarantee that you'll be cast. Likewise, you can still be cast even if you are not called back.

Interested in technical theater for SPT?

Tech will look different this semester since shows are virtual and we may not need any techies.

Still, if you want to reach out, email the directors or the Senior Co-Co (info below) with the subject line "Tech for SPT". We will keep you in mind should we need anyone!
