|
| Where are performances? |
| Performances are at the Wildish Community Theater in
Springfield or at an area school. |
| Is attendance at performances mandatory?
|
| Definitely
YES. There will be no absenteeism during
performances. |
| How much is tuition? |
|
Approximately : Summer camp $175, MIAM $135, Play $165, Adventures in Acting $60, Musical $165. The fees cover tuition,
t-shirt, and
costumes for each actor. Actors are responsible for purchasing
their own shoes, tights and undergarments as
needed. |
| Are scholarships available? |
| YES. There
are some full and partial scholarships available. Please fill
out a scholarship form during
registration. |
| What about rehearsals? |
| Most cast members will rehearse
3-4 hours per week (the larger the part, the more rehearsal
needed). The last 3 weeks of rehearsal are mandatory for
everyone. |
| Seems like a lot of rehearsals? Do I have to
be there every night? |
| No, but
everyone in the cast will rehearse at least 2 times per
week for 1-2 hours each time. There may be some flexibility
with schedule conflicts or prior commitments up until three
weeks prior to opening. All schedule conflicts must be handed
in at auditions and after that, NO new conflicts will be
accepted. |
| When will we know if we are cast? |
| If you are
considered for a lead or major role you will be asked to come
to CALLBACKS for another audition.
|
| What if I'm not called back for "call backs"?
|
| If you are
not called back IT DOES NOT MEAN YOU DIDN'T GET A PART!
Not everyone auditioning will get called back for a second
audition. |
| How will I find out if I'm cast or not?
|
| The cast
list will be posted on our web site. |
| I found out I was cast, now what do I do?
|
| You need
to call the theatre (541-431-0444) and either accept or reject
your part. Here is some good advice from the director.
Accept any part you are given and feel proud of
yourself. |
| What about our first meeting? |
| The first
meeting is mandatory for ONE PARENT (GUARDIAN, if
applicable)/CAST MEMBER(S). You will receive important
information regarding Rose Children's Theatre's expectations.
|
| What are rehearsals like? |
| Rehearsals begin with an ALL CAST read-through. After
that, the director determines the rehearsal schedule. Not
everyone will be required to rehearse each day. |
| Do you need
volunteers? |
|
YES! Volunteers are an important part of any RCT
production. One of the goals of the Rose Children's Theatre is
to involve parents in their children's theatre experience.
This also helps to build community and provide services to the
theatre that would otherwise require payment. All of the needs
of RCT cannot be met by tuition and ticket sales alone. To
make this a truly outstanding experience, there will be
specific volunteer requirements for parents of children cast
in this production. No child will be denied participation
based on his/her parent(s)' ability to
volunteer. |
| Are there
opportunities for me if I don't get
cast? |
| If you do not get cast, don't give up! Keep trying! Enroll
in our Musical in a Month program or Summer
Camp. Then come back for another audition!
