How to prepare to audition:
1. Sign up online to audition on 1/21.
2. Please prepare to sing sixteen bars (around thirty seconds) of any song (without music). Select a dynamic song that really shows off your personality and pipes. If your child is not comfortable singing at auditions, we can have them skip the singing portion of the audition and recite “Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to “Destination Oz!”
3. Bring a photo with you. A snapshot or print-out of a photo will help us remember you when it comes to casting.
4. Relax and get ready to have a lot of fun! We strive to make our program fun, inclusive and low pressure.
