WAAPA Music Theatre Audition

Hi all I'm confused :S I have been preparing for my WAAPA MT audition by 'performing' my songs as if I were in a production of the musicals...one in particular with quite a bit of movement...using a chair etc. My friend told me today, however, that there is an X on the floor which you are supposed to stand on, and that - although you can move slightly - you are primarily to simply sing with expression. Can anyone clear this up for me - particularly those with first-hand experience - because I am extremely confused...and worried :S I feel like a bit strange asking this, but I will feel even more strange if I 'perform' my songs at my audition to some very confused auditioners that expect me to stand on an X. Thanks :) x

Like Idol

I would really love to know what the auditions are like. Are they like Australian Idol with loads of participants thinking they are really good and their not? Some learn to sing and dance all their lives and have expert training that they put on their CV but if you havent got it, you aint got it. It would be interesting to know but I suppose its private hey.
