Auditioning for Shows

Who May Audition?
Auditions for CUTC productions are open to anyone.  We encourage everyone to audition regardless of theatrical experience.

When Are Auditions?
Typically auditions occur on a Saturday and Sunday approximately two months before the show.  If needed, callbacks occur on the Monday immediately following auditions.  Please view the show description for specific audition dates as well as a list of primary characters.

How Are Auditions Conducted?
Auditions for musicals are typically split into two sections.  The first section is the vocal audition.  In this audition the person auditioning is asked to sing a few bars of a prepared piece.  An accompanist is provided.  During this time the individual may also be asked to read a scene from the script.  If there is dancing for the part you are auditioning for, you will be taught some basic steps for the show and then use those for the dance audition.

Where Are Auditions Conducted?
Auditions are generally held at he Busey Center, 208 W. Main, Urbana, IL  61801 unless otherwise noted in the information about auditions.

Preparing to Audition
Scripts are generally available for reading before auditions.  Individuals are encouraged to read through the show before the audition.

The most important aspect of the audition is to have fun.

Rehearsals
Rehearsals generally start the week after the cast list is announced and are held at the Busey Center, 208 W. Main, Urbana, IL 61801.
