Little Mermaid Auditions MOVED ONLINE!!!

LITTLE MERMAID AUDITIONS WILL BE MOVED TO AN ONLINE PLATFORM!!!

We are officially online next week and, therefore, we will be continuing with auditions, but with an online format for these auditions. Each person will logon to a Zoom Meet (link posted on the blog the morning of auditions) about five minutes before your audition time, where you will wait until let in for your audition. You will need to find a backing track or instrumental online for your audition – this will take a bit of work on your part, but it totally doable. When it is your chance to audition, you will introduce yourself by saying your name, the name of your song, and what show your song is from. Then you will sing your 16-20 bars of the song (about 30 seconds) and when finished say “Thank You,” so we know you are done. We will ask you a question or two and then you are done with the singing audition. The only other part is submitting your dance video and paperwork. 

• To submit your dance video, please learn the dance that will be posted on the blog on Tuesday evening in full and PRACTICE. 
• Film yourself doing the dance where we can see your whole body and face and then upload the video to YouTube as an unlisted video. Send the link to this address ON TIME: linze.struiksma@canyonsdistrict.org 
• ALSO, you can scan paperwork to send to me, take pictures and upload them, OR (preferred) type out the information IN FULL and send it to me. The only one that MUST be scanned or a picture is the permission form. 

You must attend the singing part of the audition, submit paperwork, AND submit the dance video in order to be considered for a role. 

If you can PLEASE answer this question in the "dance experience" section, that would be great: Do you have ANY tap experience?  If not, are you genuinely willing to put in the extra time to learn tap?

Theatre 4 and Theatre 3 I will open up a google doc for you all specifically to claim a spot since that time was blocked off for you – Starting on Saturday afternoon I will open up the extra spots to anyone, so please claim your time on Friday!

ALSO, there WILL be a workshop/forum on Monday from 3-3:30pm on this google meet address:  

This is NOT the audition link - just the workshop link! 

I have found the link does not always work on phones and works better with copy/pasted in.  It is not mandatory, but an option to get centered before auditions.  Remember, I am ROOTING for each of you!  You've got this - can't wait to see!!!
