IE Auditions for 2025 Shakespeare Team!!!

 Hi everyone,

IE (Individual Event) Shakespeare auditions for next year's team will be held on May 20th in the Little Theatre!

Packets are available and on the callboard (thank you Ainsley!) and the audition sign-up sheet will also be posted on the callboard.

Please read through the packet carefully for important information.  A couple key items are below:

1. Fill out and bring pages 5 and 9 of the packet with you to auditions, as well as your grades from spring semester.

2. Please prepare a one minute Shakespeare monologue or a two minute Shakespeare scene with 1-2 partners.  I encourage you to find your own piece that you are excited to work on, but there are two monologue options that you are welcome to use for your audition piece on the last pages of the audition packet.  Additionally, I prefer to see a memorized audition, BUT, if you need to use your script (especially if this is your first time working with Shakespeare text) then that is ok!  Ultimately, I want you to have a fun, successful audition that you feel proud of!

3. For those cast with an IE piece, there will be a mandatory meeting from 2:45 - 3:45 pm in the Little Theatre on May 21st (the day after auditions).

You can access a digital copy of the audition packet HERE.  If you have questions, feel free to email me (lindsey.cline@canyonsdistrict.org) or stop by my room (2313) if you don't find me in the Little Theatre or the PAC. :)

I'm so excited for Shakespeare Competition and hope to see you at auditions!  (Ensemble scene auditions will be held at the beginning of the next school year.)
