Children/Youth Invited to Audition for Wizard of Oz

THE WIZARD OF OZ AUDITIONS

Auditions for the Missoula Children’s Theatre production of The Wizard of Oz will be held on Monday, February 3rd at 4:00 pm at The Young Performing Arts Center, 800 W. Main Street, Whitewater. There are roles for those students in kindergarten through 12th grade. Approximately 50-60 local students will be cast to appear in the show. Up to four students will be cast as Assistant Directors. There is no guarantee that everyone who auditions will be cast in the play. Students wishing to audition must arrive by the scheduled starting time and stay for the entire two-hour session. The first rehearsal begins approximately 15-minutes after the audition.

This is a group audition–no advance preparation is necessary. Students should just be ready to come and have a good time!

Rehearsals will be conducted every day Monday, February 3rd through Friday, February 7th from 4:00 pm to 8:15 pm on the main stage at The Young Performing Arts Center. Although not all cast members will be needed at every session, those auditioning must have a cleared schedule for the entire week and if selected, be able to attend all rehearsals required for their role and be available for the performance. A detailed rehearsal schedule will be distributed at the conclusion of the auditions. Cast members scheduled for the full 4 hours and 15 minutes will be asked to bring a sack lunch, dinner or snack to be eaten during the 15-minute break between sessions.

The performance will be held on Saturday, February 8th at 3:00 pm and will be presented at The Young Performing Arts Center.

The Missoula Children’s Theatre is a non-profit organization based in Missoula, Montana. This coming year more than 65,000 cast members across the globe will take to the stage to the delight and applause of their families, friends, community, neighbors and teachers!  This residency is made possible by The Young Performing Arts Center.
