Auditions Announced for MARY POPPINS at Voices of Indiana

VOI_logoThe Wait Is Over…

Voices of Broadway presents MARY POPPINS

We experienced a bit of a delay – thank you for your patience!

At Voices of Indiana, we do our summer musicals a bit differently. Everyone gets to participate. There are no cuts…we cast everyone! (However, we do ask young singers be in at least 4th grade.) There is a small fee to participate. Please see the website for registration information.

PROCESS:
We start by “Learning the Show.” Then, those who wish to audition for a role may do so. Due to our delayed start and the quick turnaround of this communication, we have multiple opportunities to learn and audition. If your schedule will allow, please plan to come to both “Learn” sessions, even if you do not plan to audition for a role.

To audition, please prepare a selection or at least 16 bars from the show (using music is okay), or another piece in the same style.

Please select only one audition opportunity.
The following sessions will all be at Lawrenceburg High School,
in the choir room. (Enter Door 13.)
LEARN THE SHOW:
Monday, June 1, 5:30-7:30 PM
and/or
Tuesday, June 2, 5:30-7:30 PM
Optional role auditions will follow each session…

ROLE AUDITIONS:
(auditioning for a role is optional)
Monday, June 1, starting at 8:00 PM
Tuesday, June 2, starting at 8:00 PM
Thursday, June 4, starting at 5:30 PM

We sincerely hope that these multiple sessions will fit with everyone’s schedule. If not, please contact me (Kristin) at 812.260.2020 to make alternate arrangements.

We will start with full rehearsals the week of June 8th. In general, all will be called Monday evenings, with additional rehearsals for leads and young singers.
Thank you – any questions, please email to info@voicesofindiana.org.
