**Because of our team's specialized audition process, we ask that you make an appointment to be seen for 9 to 5. You can find the link for submission guideline information toward the bottom of this page. You will be called for a specific block of time within the hours listed above. If there are any times you won't be available on either day, please include that in your audition request email. Walk-ins are not preferred, seeing that we send you specific material to audition with and spots fill very quickly, but they are allowed in last minute cases. The earlier you sign up, the better; it will give you more time to work with the material. Thanks!
​
PRE-AUDITION WORKSHOP:
Prior to auditions, we will be holding a pre-audition workshop on Saturday April 7 at 2PM. At this workshop, the director and music director will be briefly discussing the show and attendees will have a chance to quickly step through audition dance ahead of time. This is not required for the main audition.
​
CALLBACK INFO:
Callbacks, if necessary, will be held the week of April 16. More specific time TBA.
AUDITION/CALLBACK LOCATION:
Specific location for auditions and callbacks will be specified in our response email.
​
REHEARSAL/CONFLICT INFO (PLEASE READ!):
Rehearsals will start inthe beginning of June and run Sunday-Tuesday each week with an occasional extra rehearsal. The first three weeks involve learning all the music and most of the dances in the show. Attendance, while absolutely imperative for the entire process, is especially important for these early weeks. Cast tech week (July 27-Aug 1) and performances (August 2, 3, 4, 5, 9, 10, 11, 12, 16, 17, 18, 19, 23, 24, 25, 26, 30, 31, Sept 1 and 2) will be held at Annapolis Summer Garden Theatre and are required dates for show participation. No conflicts will be accepted for any of the aforementioned dates.
We ask that you please refrain from auditioning if you are already fully committed to another project that heavily conflicts with the aforementioned rehearsal schedule, as well as performance dates. Individuals with any major projects overlapping with our schedule will not be considered for this production.
If you are not able to make the commitment to our busy schedule, we have some production/backstage roles we need to fill which involve a much lighter schedule. If you are interested in any of these type positions, please contact Jenn Smith at jsmith@summergarden.com for more information. We appreciate your consideration prior to requesting an audition! If you have any other inquiries regarding the schedule, feel free to reach out; we're more than happy to answer any questions you have!
