AUDITIONS - Revels Houston at the MATCH
Advertisement
Revels Houston is holding open auditions for singers and performers, ages seven and up, for the December 2026 production of The Christmas Revels: A German/Alpine Celebration of the Winter Solstice. Auditions will be held at St. Luke’s Methodist Church, 3471 Westheimer in Houston on Saturday, August 22 from 10am - 2pm and Sunday, August 23 from 1pm - 4pm.
Revels Houston is a decades-old, family-friendly annual celebration of the winter season told in song, dance, and story, each year being set in a different point in time and space. This year’s production is set in the Alpine regions of Germany and Austria, circa the 19th century.
Strong singers of all ranges are sought for roles in this production. Actors and dancers are also encouraged to audition, but this production is primarily singing in chorale-type groups or solos. Formal voice training and/or the ability to read music are a plus but not essential.
Auditioners should come prepared to sing alone and with a mixed group; they should also be prepared to sing a brief (up to one minute) piece of their choosing that shows their range and strength, either a cappella or with a backing track.
Rehearsals will be held every Monday evening and every three weekends on Saturday daytimes from September 14 - December 12 at St. Luke’s; successful auditioners will have the ability to memorize their parts within suitable timeframes. Tech week is December 14 - 17 at the MATCH, with five performances there December 18 - 20.
This is a non-Equity, non-paying production with costumes and materials provided. Additionally, two speaking but non-singing roles – St. Nicholas and Knecht Ruprecht – are open to auditioning male-presenting actors.
