What is a Miscast Cabaret? In Star Center's Miscast Cabaret, performers take the stage in roles they'd never be traditionally cast in - and have a blast doing it! You'll see singers perform songs meant for characters of different genders, ages, or types, creating fresh, funny, and sometimes surprisingly moving reinterpretations of favorite musical theatre numbers. It's a night full of creativity, laughter, and unexpected surprises as performers break the casting rules and celebrate the joy of performance in all its forms.
Auditions:
Prepare 2 songs for your audition. One song should be the one you would like to perform in the Cabaret, the other is a backup in case there are multiple auditions of that song choice. Have your second ready for the audition just in case you are asked by the production staff to perform it. You will only need to prepare 16-32 bars of your songs.
Bring your accompanying track with you to the auditions. We will have you connect to our sound equipment via bluetooth on your phone/device. If you do not have the equipment available to you for this portion, please send your accompaniment track to: [email protected] prior to your audition.
Bring a list of conflicts you may have between January 2nd, 2026 and performance dates. Parents must accompany minors to the audition and sign the audition form.
Rehearsals: There will be at least one, one hour rehearsal with production staff prior to tech week to review staging, blocking, and potential technical aspects. You may sign up for more rehearsals after everyone has had a chance. You must be memorized and off-book of your piece prior to any rehearsals.
Tech: Tech will be the Week of February 6th, more info to come.
Fundraiser: Some proceeds of the Miscast Cabaret will benefit those traveling to New York City with Star Center Theatre this Summer 2026. Those who are attending may receive priority in casting. If you are interested in joining us in New York, please email [email protected] or visit our New York 2026 Site.
