Reading Requirements

If you’re interested in auditioning for the youth roles, please visit JuMP Company.

Find the director’s side for the role for which you’re auditioning and memorize it and the scene. There will be no cold reads at the audition unless the creative team wants to see you in another role. We want you to come prepared for the scene and song of the character for which you’re auditioning and see your interpretation and how you would be as that character.
