Audition Information (3rd-6th graders only)

3rd graders are welcome to audition, however, be aware that older students are generally given the chance to participate first in the event more students audition than we have spots in the cast. Casting is a challenging process, and we love all of these kiddos! But we have to limit the size of the cast due to stage capacity at the Jr High, and having a a manageable size cast for directors. If your child does not make it this year, please try again next year!

How do we pick cast members? 3rd and 4th graders are generally put in the ensemble, while the main cast is generally reserved for older students, with some exceptions. For main characters, we're looking for an ability to project, bold personalities, ability to bring a character's personality to life, and students who will memorize their lines and be respectful. Behavior during auditions and previous years' musical is also a consideration.

Rules of Participation

Pay $40 Participation fee Here

All students are expected to be on their best behavior during rehearsals and performances. This is incredibly important, so please talk with your child about following these rules:

Do not leave the gym without permission.
Students are only allowed to use the restroom just outside the gym doors during rehearsal (between the gym and cafeteria doors), and must have permission from a director or adult volunteer.
No wandering halls. Once school is out, students are not permitted to go upstairs, in classrooms, or be anywhere aside from the gym or other areas designated by adults. The school has security cameras, and breaking this rule may lead to dismissal from the musical.
Participants must listen, do their best, and be respectful to directors and peers.
Participants should spend time at home learning their part (especially main characters) and come prepared for rehearsals.
Have fun! (Of course!)

If a student is struggling to follow these rules during rehearsals, their parents/guardians may be contacted. Parents may be asked to attend rehearsals to supervise their child, the student may be dismissed from the musical, or other actions may be taken as determined by the musical directors.

Helpful Information

Tickets: $6.00, will go on sale October 28 (tentatively). Watch for an email from POEC.

We need your help to make the musical a success! Sign up here to volunteer.

Communication

We will be using the app BAND to communicate with parents. Lots of helpful information will be provided, so please download this app and keep up on announcements!

Costuming

If you have a costume or would like to make/buy your child's costume, please contact us at saa.poec.north@gmail.com. Costuming 80 kids is a big task, and we appreciate the help. The director will decide if your costume works for our play, and we'll let you know quickly. Otherwise, costuming will be provided. Your child may be asked to wear some general items (tights, black pants, etc.) to supplement their costume.
