Kick-Off Meeting

Sunday, April 18 @ 4:30 PM, we will have a quick meeting in the Buena Vista Chapel gym. The main purpose of this meeting is to get the whole cast together for the first time and form our teams so that everyone can meet who they'll be working with. We need to coordinate schedules, distibute materials, and get organized for what's to come in the next few months.

See you all there!

Auditions - Second Chance

For everyone that was not able to make Saturday's audition mixer, we are still offering you the chance to come and join our already talented cast.

Monday, April 12, at 7:00 PM during the tri-ward FHE, we will be set up again down at the Buena Vista Chapel. Anyone interested in auditioning is invited stop by the Relief Society room to do so.

Remember, we've made the audition process as painless as we possibly can. We've provided you with a selection of karaoke songs (see below) that will be available to perform from in the audition room. You don't have to memorize a thing for this audition. You are also welcome to come and sing any song you're already familiar with so we can just get some kind of sense for your voice.

If auditioning or singing a solo sounds a little too intimidating but you would still like to participate in some way, just stop by the room and have a chat with us. We have plenty of chorus parts as well as non-singing roles. We also need crew for all the behind-the-scenes stuff. Please come. You will definitely want to be a part of this!

PLEASE HELP US GET THE WORD OUT TO ALL OF YOUR YSA & INSTITUTE FRIENDS IMMEDIATELY BY EMAILING, TEXTING, CALLING, OR EVEN JUST TELLING THEM THE OLD-FASHIONED WAY!!!

Tips for Audition Day

For breakfast, try to avoid anything dairy, and don't get too full. We recommend a light breakfast of eggs or non-citrus fruit as this will not affect your singing voice.

We will also have some singer-friendly foods available for you to eat at the mixer.

See you all at the Buena Vista Chapel at 10 am!
