To audition in-person, you will sign up for an audition day, but you do not get a specific audition time. Depending on the shows you are auditioning for, you may be at auditions from 9am to 5pm on your audition day.
Each audition day has the same schedule. You only need to come to one audition day. Below is the schedule for each day.

DANCE AUDITIONS
All shows require that you attend dance auditions at 9am and that you perform either the ensemble dance routine or the featured dancer audition. Both routines will be taught on audition day and at the pre-audition workshop.
GENERAL SINGING AND ACTING AUDITIONS
General singing and acting auditions for all shows begin at 10:30. You will be allowed two one songs (no monologues this year). You should plan on staying until at least 3pm if you are interested in an ensemble part and until 5pm if you are interested in a principal part. At 3pm, auditionees not needed for call-backs will be released.
PRINCIPAL CALL-BACKS
Principal call-backs will be held from 3pm to 5pm on each day of auditions. You will will be told by 3pm if you are needed for call backs. Principal audition scripts and music will be available on the MST web site before auditions so you can prepare.
BREAKS
There will be frequent breaks and a lot of waiting during the day. Bathrooms will be avialable. We recommend that you bring water, snacks, lunch, and something to read. If you will have an extended break you may leave and come back, at your disgression.
