Thank you for your interest in the musical theater program at WMS! I was THRILLED with all of the students who came out to audition. The student interest, as well as each individual's patience and preparation, was truly noted. Thank you for making the audition process a success!
Please know that there were over 60 students who auditioned! I have most of the casting finished; however, there are a few students I would like to see again and invite to callbacks. Callbacks is similar to a second audition that gives the director the opportunity to see his potential actors and actresses one last time before making the final call on the cast list. You do not need to prepare anything for callbacks; however, you may be asked to read from the script and sing various songs from the musical. Come ready to shine! Do your best and know that you are in the same boat as your peers. This is the last time you have to 'show me what you got' before I make my final decisions, so bring your A-Game and rock it tomorrow night!
CALLBACKS: 5:30 - 7:30 in the auditorium
You will be asked to sign in and will be brought inside the auditorium in groups. You may even be allowed to leave early once I see what I need to see in order to make my final decision, so please bring a cell phone to call your parents for an early ride home or bring homework to work on until we finish at 7:30. You may have down time, so be prepared to quietly work by yourself until you are needed on stage.
PLEASE NOTE: IF YOU ARE NOT INVITED TO CALLBACKS, THAT DOES NOT MEAN YOU ARE NOT CAST IN THE SHOW. It just means that I do not need to see you audition again. Please check the blog late Wednesday evening (or very early Thursday morning), as the final cast list will be posted here. I am only calling back 24 students and plan to cast around 40 students. Please remember, if you are cast in the show, one parent/guardian plus the student cast needs to be at the parent meeting on Thursday from 6:15-7:15 unless this was on your list of conflicts on your audition sheet.
