  • Please remember to list all vacation dates  and rehearsal conflicts on your audition application.  Make special note that the last two weeks of tech rehearsals are mandatory;  if you already have known conflicts that will interfere with attending tech rehearsals on July dates you will not be eligible for a speaking role. You may be considered for an ensemble role, but the director and choreographer have the final decision of which scenes you may participate in based on your rehearsal attendance. No one may miss rehearsals during tech on July 14, 15, 16, 17, 21, 22, 23, or performances on July 24, 25, 26, 27.
