Thank you for your interest in auditioning for our production of ‘Our House’. Before continuing, please ensure you have read all of the information on this document, and if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch at stagetheatresociety@gmail.com. On behalf of everyone at STS, we wish you all the very best for your audition. Good luck!

 

Stage Theatre Society is a youth theatre group and you must be between 7 and 19 years old to audition. These are open auditions, so you do not need to be an existing company member to attend. Auditions will be held on Sunday 29th September 2024 at Rainham School for Girls (Derwent Way, Rainham, Kent, ME8 0BX). Please read all of the information carefully to understand what you will need to do and when.

 

Please note that registration in advance is required for auditions, which you can do by filling out the following online form:

On this form, you will be asked for important information such as emergency contact details etc. that we need for all young people who take part in our shows. Please ensure all details are correct as it could effect our communication with you regarding the audition outcome.

 

ENSEMBLE AUDITIONS: 10am - 12pm

 

If you are interested in auditioning for the ensemble of this production, there is no need to prepare anything in advance. You will be taught a song and a dance combination on the day, and will take part in an acting activity, but you won’t be required to do anything on your own (only in small groups). Dress to dance (i.e. no restrictive clothing like jeans, and you should wear dance shoes or trainers).

 

PRINCIPAL DANCER: 12pm - 1pm

 

To be considered for a principal dancer role, you must also attend either the ensemble or principal audition so that we can hear you sing. At this audition, you will be taught a more advanced dance combination. Please come dressed to dance and with a bottle of water.

 

FEATURED CHARACTER AUDITIONS: 1.30pm - 2.30pm

 

A large portion of the Principal roles in Our House must be played by cast members over the age of 15 years old due to the nature of some of the dialogue. However, one of the great things about Our House is that there are a large number of speaking and singing roles. If you wish to take part in this audition please learn the dialogue and song listed below. You will be taught a short section of dance on the day. These auditions are ideal for those who would like to try for a principal role but are maybe not as confident/younger/new to musical theatre.

 

PRINCIPAL AUDITIONS: 2.30pm - 7.30pm

 

To be considered for a Principal role you must also attend either ensemble or principal dancer auditions so we can see you dance. Before your audition, you will need to learn material by heart for your chosen character from the document below. We guarantee that we will see you perform the material for that character, however we will consider all auditionees for all available roles. Those who aren’t cast in principal roles will also be considered for featured and ensemble roles. Principal auditions will finish no later than 7.30pm, however we may finish earlier. 

 

There is no fee to audition, but successful auditionees will be required to pay a production fee of £150. This fee will include all rehearsals, costumes, relevant insurances, as well as two tickets to the production. Cast members will need to be available for Sunday afternoon rehearsals from 2pm - 6.00pm, from 6th October 2024 up until the performance week. The production will be held at The Hazlitt Theatre from 23rd July - 26th July 2024, but cast members would be expected to be at the theatre for evening rehearsals from 20th July.
