Audition Information

Every student must complete the online audition registration form. This information will be used to build our rosters for next year, so please make sure you fully complete it BEFORE the audition. If you have questions about the content of this registration form, please contact Matt Dymoke at mdymoke@isd271.org.

Every student will also need to bring the signed and completed audition packet to their audition, with parent/guardian signature. This will be collected before your audition time slot. We cannot place you in one of the ensembles unless we receive a completed audition packet.

All students will prepare the choreography selection AND the vocal piece listed below. There are videos to teach the choreography.
