The audition for the Missoula Children’s Theatre production of RAPUNZEL will be held on Monday, August 4 at 9:00 a.m. in the Falls Area Performing Arts Center, located at Oconto Falls High School. There are roles for those students entering 1st grade through grade 12. Approximately 50-60 local students will be cast to appear in the show with the MCT Tour Actor/Director. There is no guarantee that everyone who auditions will be cast in the play. Students wishing to audition must arrive by 8:45 a.m. and stay for the entire two-hour audition session. The first rehearsal will begin approximately 15-30 minutes after the audition.
This is a group audition–no advance preparation is necessary, but a smile J never hurts. Students should just be ready to come and have a good time!
Rehearsals will be conducted every day from 9:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at Oconto Falls High School in the Falls Area Performing Arts Center and the Choir room. Although not all cast members will be needed at every session, those auditioning must have a clear schedule for the entire week and if selected, be able to attend all rehearsals required for their role. A detailed rehearsal schedule will be distributed at the conclusion of the audition. Cast members scheduled for the full 4½ hours of rehearsal will be asked to bring a sack lunch and snack.
The performances will be held on Saturday, August 9 at 3:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. and will be presented at the Falls Area Performing Arts Center, located in Oconto Falls High School. The students in the cast will be called for dress rehearsal before the performance that day. All those cast must be available for all scheduled performances.
