Dance Opportunities in "The Wizard of Oz" Show
Men and women are welcome to audition for "The Wizard of Oz". Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. Additional info: Requirements: DOROTHY / THE GOOD WITCH / THE SCARECROW / THE TIN WOODMAN / THE COWARDLY LION Required to upload an accompaniment track to be used for a selected song at auditions. 32 measures (1 minute) of a song from THE WIZARD OF OZ or a song from the Golden Age Musical Theatre would be appropriate. The Scarecrow must be a good dancer AND singer, so auditions will require both skills at a high level. CHORUS: Chorus auditionees are urged, but not required, to find 16 measures of a song to sing at auditions since there are solo lines throughout the chorus numbers. An accompaniment track of a song from THE WIZARD OF OZ or a song from the Golden Age of Musical Theatre would be appropriate and can be uploaded into this Registration form. Those who audition without an accompaniment link will be taught a song from the show to sing at the audition with an accompanist. DANCE CORPS: Dance Corps auditionees need to indicate their experience in Ballet, Jazz, or Modern Technique on the registration form.
