Vancouver East Auditions for The Hobbit

The Hobbit
AUDITIONS
Cascade Park Baptist Church
1201 SE 136th Street,
Vancouver
Monday, January 3rd
3:00-6:00pm

To audition, students must be between 8 and 18 years old and currently enrolled in a Vancouver or Vancouver East class.

What Do I Bring To Auditions?
• A completed and signed Audition Form
• A completed and signed Costume Form
• A completed and signed Parent Committee Form
• An instrumental only, cued accompaniment track (like Karaoke) for your one minute song.
(We will not be providing an accompanist. If you plan to use sheet music you must also bring your own accompanist.)
* A current photo

If you do not have a photograph, bring $2 and we will take one for you at auditions.

Registration for your audition is simple. To secure a spot for your audition, simply arrive at the audition location between the times designated for the particular show you’d like to audition for. For example, if your auditions are held between 3:00 and 6:00 pm and you sign in between those times, you are guaranteed an audition slot. If, however, you arrive at 6:01 pm, you will not be allowed to audition.

Upon submitting all the appropriate materials (see What Do I Bring To Auditions?) at audition registration, auditioners are assigned a number. Auditions then take place in groups of 10. For example, numbers 1-10 sit in their designated spots in the audition room. After this group is seated, no one will be allowed to enter or exit the room while the group of ten is performing their individual auditions. This helps to keep unnecessary distractions to a minimum during the auditions. After the group of ten completes their individual auditions, the doors will open up and audience members will be able to come and go as they wish. Then the next group of auditioners are called to be seated and the process repeats. This continues until all who have registered to audition have performed.

In order to make the audition process as fun and supportive as possible, parents and friends are invited to watch auditions to support those auditioning. You may choose to watch as many groups of auditions that day as you would like. This can be a great learning experience. Even those who aren’t auditioning are encouraged to watch.

CALLBACKS

Please be on time for the time you are called. Callbacks are closed (no one can attend but the student called) and will be at Cascade Park Baptist Church.

*Wear comfortable clothes and shoes, no flip-flops or sandals, as dance auditions are part of callbacks.
*Bring a snack or dinner if you are called for the entire time.

If you are not called back it does not mean you are not cast in the show!

The final cast list for The Hobbit will be posted on this blog at 4:00 PM, Thursday, January 6th.
