About Auditions
ALL ACTORS MUST REGISTER FOR AUDITIONS. You may audition in person (highly recommended) on either Saturday, April 11 at 10am or on Monday, April 13, at 7pm. Your audition will consist material taught to you or provided for you at the auditions, including a brief movement/dance sequence, musical material from the show, and cold reads from the show. You may optionally also prepare a vocal piece of no more than 60 seconds. Both audition sessions will be held at McGregor Hall. Enter through the stage door at the top of the ramp at the corner of Wyche and West Winder Streets in Downtown Henderson. We will expedite auditions as much as possible, but plan to stay for up to three hours.
While in-person auditions are strongly encouraged, if you are unavailable for either of the audition dates, you are welcome to submit a video audition. Prepare a recording in one take (no cutaways) of your singing a selection of no more than 60 seconds that showcases your talents that best align with the requirements of one of the roles in Hello, Dolly! Instructions for submitting your video will be provided in your confirmation email after you register for auditions.
A few actors may be called back for an additional audition on Thursday, April 16.
You are encouraged to review the materials below, particularly the roles and ranges document.
