August 15-16! WCT ANNOUNCES OPEN AUDITIONS for the classic musical “Fiddler on the Roof!”

Auditions for actors ages 14+ will be held at 7 PM at the First United Methodist Church in Red Oak (600 Daubitz Drive) on Monday, August 15 and Tuesday, August 16. The sign-in table will open at 6:30 PM. Bring a resume and/or a head shot if you have them. Callbacks will be at 7 PM on Thursday, August 18 at the same location.

Auditions for actors ages 8-13 will be at the same location on Saturday, August 20 beginning at 10 AM. The sign-in table will open at 9:30 AM.

All roles are open. Auditions are handled on a first-come, first-served basis and you will be called according to the order of the sign-in list.

Auditions for ages 14+ will consist of singing, dancing, and/or cold readings from the script. Actors ages 8-13 will only need to sing.

For a singing audition, please prepare at least 16 measures of a song that showcases your vocal range and strength. You can sing a cappella, bring your own accompanist, sing with a soundtrack if the track has no vocals (bring your own electronic equipment), or use the accompanist who will be present (bring sheet music for your song).

Actors ages 14+ should wear comfortable clothing and slick-soled shoes for the dance audition. No tennis shoes or flip-flops, please!

Kasi Jones is the show director, Don Jones is the music director, and the show is produced by special arrangement with Music Theatre International, Inc.

Show dates are October 28-30 in the Chautauqua Auditorium in Getzendaner Park in Waxahachie. Rehearsals will be at the audition location on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday evenings beginning Thursday, August 25.
