Academy Players: The Audition Process
Audition Process: DISNEY’S THE LION KING KIDS
1. Schedule Audition Time
2. Complete the Audition Form and PRINT IT OUT.
This form needs to be filled out and signed by the PARENT and the student.
3. Your Audition
Bring your printed audition form and a recent 8″ x 10″ photo of you, and your printed audition form to your audition.
- Your photo doesn’t need to be professionally done. You can take a photo on your phone and have it printed at Walmart.
- Your photo MUST be current. With so many students auditioning, the director needs to recognize your face when reviewing them, so it needs to look like you do now.
Prepare a 1-minute monologue of your choice, as well as a cut of a song no more than 1 minute long. See the “Audition Materials” page for more information.
4. Callbacks: July 25, 10:00 AM – 3:00 PM
All students who audition will receive an email by July 24 letting them know whether they are called back for a second audition or not.
10:00 AM – 12:00 PM: Dance Callbacks
- All students called back will be expected to attend the dance callbacks.
12:15 PM – 2:30 PM: Acting & Vocal Callbacks
- We will call students back in groups for acting and/or vocal callbacks, depending on the roles for which they are being considered.
- Those who are called back will receive a daily schedule, as well as additional music and acting scenes to prepare.
5. Casting Results
Casting results will be emailed by August 3. Everyone will get an email letting them know if they were cast or not.
