Upcoming Children Auditions - The King and I

We are looking to cast 15-20 children for our upcoming production of The King and I.

Auditions will be held in the Alta Choir Room on Sept. 28th from 4-7 p.m.

Auditions are on a first come, first serve basis.  When you arrive you will be given a number and will audition according to your number. We will only be able to audition the first 100 children for these roles, therefore, please come to the auditions earlier rather than later to secure a number for your child.

For the audition, children will be asked to sing a provided selection from the musical and recite a small rhyme.  Both of these items will be available in an audition packet for you to pick up starting September 21st. Please come to the drama room to pick it up.

*This packet will include the material that you will need to bring with you to your audition, including sheet music for the selected song, a short rhyme, and an audition form.  Please fill out the form and bring it with you to your audition.


Children are invited to audition if they meet the following requirements:

-Are between the ages of 4 - 10 years old
-Attend (or will attend if not in school yet) an elementary school that feeds into Alta High
-Have a parent/guardian that is able to attend several rehearsals to help with other children
-Will be able to attend all of the rehearsals AND every performance including 2 morning shows during the school week 
Morning shows will be on Nov. 17th and 18th
Evening shows will be on Nov. 19th, 20th, 21st, and 23rd

**A list of rehearsal dates for the children will be posted soon!

-There will be a $25.00 fee per child to participate if cast in the show.  You will be also be responsible for purchasing make up and black colored hair spray.
