Only those selected to audition will be contacted. Applicants who obtain an audition slot will be asked to prepare the following:
1. One monologue no longer than two minutes in length that showcases a physically dynamic character suitable for a young audience.
2. A performance piece WITHOUT TEXT that is no longer than two minutes in length. We are looking for direct, word-free communication with the audience (no fourth wall). If you have access to and would like to use mask, a clown nose, puppetry, etc., please do, but it is not essential.
3. A group audition portion where three actors will be given characters and scenarios and then asked to improvise using mask and/or puppetry together. We will provide the masks and puppets.
