Current students:
Our current plan is to take the first few days that we get back to do ALL auditions for current students during class. This means that we will be taking time to audition all singing, acting, and dance auditions for Musical Theatre, Theatre and Choir all during class.  Please use the time that you have off to prepare for these in person auditions. If, we have more time off than anticipated, we may have to go to video based auditions, we will let you know as soon as possible and give you a reasonable  amount of time to prepare your video auditions to the best of your ability. Please give us a little bit of time to figure all of this out. We will do our best to communicate effectively  and quickly as decisions are made. 

Please go to the  website link above  to see information for a vocal audition for either Choir or Musical. you will also use this link to sign up for the dance audition for Show Choir or Musical.
