All auditionees will be required to prepare a talk highlighting their theatrical experience to deliver to the panel, lasting one to three minutes. In addition to this the auditionee should also prepare, learn and rehearse an original monologue based on the character they wish to audition for, also lasting one to three minutes. Please make the talk and monologue interesting and entertaining and wow us with your theatrical prowess.
