Hello all!
Shakespeare IE (Individual Event) auditions for next year's team are approaching in the next few weeks! These will be held on May 19th in the Little Theatre. Packets are now available and on the callboard in the Little Theatre as is the audition sign-up sheet. It is just inside the East Side doors.
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 okay! Ultimately, I want you to have a fun, successful audition and that you feel proud of yourself.
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 20th (the day after auditions).
You can access a digital copy of the audition packet HERE. If you have questions, feel free to email me (linze.struiksma@canyonsdistrict.org) or stop by the Little Theatre after school.
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 and more info can be found here the first week of August.
