What should I do to prepare for acting tryouts? The Libretto is an excellent source for
Actors interested in auditioning to prepare for tryouts by reading
over parts and looking at which songs the characters sing (if the
character you are trying out for has a singing part). A
link to the applicable Libretto will be posted when available, under
the "Current Openings" and/or "Member News" section of the
Dreamweavers web site. During the tryouts you will probably be
asked to read some of the lines from the libretto. It is also
recommended that you work on "getting into your character", including
voice, posture, etc. so you can give a clear impression of the
character and showcase it as you read the lines. |

I want to
audition. What can I do to help build a "stronger" voice?
Often, in stage musicals, your voice is only one
part of what a director looks for in casting. Your ability to "emote"
on stage (make your feelings and expressions clear to the audience),
how well the director sees that you fit the character image and your
willingness to take direction and work hard at developing the role are
all significant. If you do not have a voice teacher, you may want to
take some lessons to help with projection. Practice every day to
improve tone and delivery. In the final decision made by the director,
your natural talent and delivery will make the difference. |
