result in being removed from the production.

All Callbacks, meetings, rehearsals, and productions are held at our location at Springwater Church in Gresham. 3445 SE Hillyard Rd.
​
Callbacks: If your student receives a callback, that will take place on Tuesday, December 5th from 6-9pm in person. Receiving a callback does not mean your student is cast. Not receiving a callback does not mean your student is cut. We expect to cast the production soon after that.

We welcome students without previous theater experience. An Information Meeting will be held on Thursday, November 16th at 7pm. This meeting will also be available on Zoom. We will record the meeting, so if you are unable to attend or watch live, you will be able to see this meeting. The Zoom Link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/85432237228

Online Auditions will be accepted through 11:59 pm on Friday, December 1st, 2023.

We would like you to choose one of the following three songs from the production to sing. We recommend if possible having background music to perform with.
