Who Is Eligible?

HELP! This Is My First Audition!
We know that your first audition can be a VERY intimidating thing. If you are auditioning for the first time and are NOT interested in a larger/speaking role, you may audition in a group of 3-5. Your group will need to prepare a musical selection under 2 minutes.
Again, this is only open to students auditioning for the first time who do not want to be considered for larger/speaking roles.
I Am Interested In Larger Roles.
(Lead, Supporting, Featured, etc.)
Students interested in advanced auditions should prepare a vocal selection from musical theatre. The prepared section should be two minutes or less and be performed from memory with an accompaniment track with no vocals.
​
Second, students should also prepare a monologue of their choice that is at least one minute long. ​
What If I Am Interested In The Technical Side Of Theatre?
There is a place for everyone in the theatre program! Maybe you like to draw and paint or do hair and makeup. Maybe you are into graphic design and digital artwork. Maybe you're a technology buff or a social media master. Maybe you just like to build things. Whatever your interests, we have a place for you in the theatre!
What About Rehearsals And Course Credit?
Big Fish rehearsals begin with BOOT CAMP December 31 through January 3 from 12 PM to 5 PM each day.
Beginning Monday, January 12. rehearsals will take place Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday from 3:30 PM to 5:30 PM. As we get closer to performances, there are added rehearsals and longer hours. All rehearsal information is provided to cast and crew members before rehearsals begin.
​
Students selected to be part of the cast or crew will be enrolled in a 5th-period class called Theatre Production. As in all arts classes, levels one and two receive regular credit, and levels three and four receive honors credit. Attendance, preparedness, and participation are expected. Excessive absences, lack of preparation, and minimal participation will negatively impact not only your grade, but future opportunities.
Remember: Every day you are auditioning for your next role.
