Choose an audition piece, and read the entire play it’s taken from before the audition. Work on the audition piece in advance; waiting until the night before the audition is highly discouraged. The audition monologue is limited to 60 seconds.
Some basic questions to consider when preparing your audition piece:
- Who am I?
- Where am I (what is the time, weather and place)?
- Who am I talking to?
- Why am I saying this now, or what makes it important to say this now?
- What am I hoping to achieve by saying this? Or, how do I hope things will change because I say this?
Callbacks will be posted the next morning and held that same evening Thursday, January 18. Cast lists will be posted Friday, January 19. If you are cast, you must register for the following course:
- THTR UN2022 Practicum Performance Show 1: Dance Nation, directed by Tea Alagic
- THTR UN2024 Practicum Performance Thesis 1: Love & So, directed by Kathy Fang
