Guys And Dolls Audition
It’s time once again to start preparing for the annual school musical! This year, we will produce the classic, Golden Age musical Guys and Dolls. Auditions will be after school on October 5th and 6th. Check the Call Board outside of the Black Box theatre room located behind the auditorium for sign-ups. Those interested in auditioning will need to prepare a song of their choice and be prepared to learn a short dance combination before they audition. The audition will also consist of a cold read. If you have any questions, ask Mrs. Justice or Mrs. Powell.
