**You must make an appointment via email to be seen for auditions. Walk-ins are NOT available, seeing that we send you specific material to audition with and spots fill very quickly. The earlier you sign up, the better; it will give you more time to work with the material and ensure an audition with us. Please 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. Thanks!
CALLBACK INFO:
Callbacks, if necessary, will be held on Sunday June 24 from 7PM-10PM. If you audition on Friday night, you may potentially be called back on Saturday for an early callback. You will recieve a phone call or email should a callback audition be required.

PRODUCTION INFO:
Required Cast Meeting – Saturday July 14
First Rehearsal – Monday August 6
REHEARSAL/CONFLICT INFO (PLEASE READ!):
Rehearsals will run Monday-Wednesday evenings in August and Monday-Thursday evenings in September. The first three to four 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 weeks and personal conflicts will likely not be accepted for these dates. Cast tech weeks (October 1-4, October 8-11), performances (October 12, 13, 19, 20, 21, 26, 27, 28), a brush-up rehearsal (October 17 or 18), and a production strike (October 28 after the final performance) will be held at Slayton House Theater in Columbia, MD and are required dates for show participation. Absolutely no conflicts will be accepted for any of the aforementioned dates. An agreement will be issued for all individuals cast to sign abiding to these days and times.
We ask that you please refrain from auditioning if you are already fully committed to another project that conflicts with the aforementioned rehearsal schedule, as well as performance and strike 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 plenty of production/backstage roles we need to fill which involve a much lighter schedule. 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!
