Upon receipt of the application and approval to audition, the applicant will receive a link to an online portal login to submit their audition components. Within the portal, applicants can directly upload their videos or insert a YouTube link. Any audition links uploaded to YouTube must be unlisted.
- Applicants will submit video performances of two contrasting*, memorized dramatic or comedic monologues (words spoken by one person in a play) from a published play (each one minute maximum).
- Submit two separate videos, with one monologue on each and no edits of video within each monologue.
- Applicants should use no costumes. Minimal props may be used for the monologue, but only if they do not distract from the quality of the performance.
*Contrasting means one monologue should be dramatic and the other comic.
