Center Stage Productions is hosting auditions for its upcoming production of The Prom, which will perform August 6th-9th. Tentatively, rehearsals will begin the week of Monday, June 1st and will take place three times a week to start. We are projecting those days will follow a Monday Wednesday Thursday schedule, but that cadence is subject to change based on cast availability, which will be determined when casting is complete.
If you are unable to make either of the scheduled audition days, or for any other audition inquiries, please email Patrick Murray at [email protected].
We are seeking a dynamic and diverse ensemble of teens/young adults and adults (ages 13 and up) for CSP’s production of The Prom. Center Stage Productions is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusivity in its work and encourages performers of all ethnicities, races, backgrounds, and gender expressions to audition. For the roles portrayed by adults, we have listed an approximation of the starting age we are considering for these roles, and though we will largely be considering actors from that age and up, all actors are encouraged to audition for what they feel suits them best.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
For our Wednesday, May 13th auditions, an accompanist will be provided. For Saturday, May 16th, we will be operating auditions with accompaniment tracks only. Please plan accordingly. Though you are permitted to use a track when attending the Wednesday, May 13th audition date, it is encouraged that you try to attend our Saturday, May 16th audition date if planning to use a track.
WHEN:
Wednesday, May 13th from 6:00 P.M. to 10:00 P.M.
Saturday, May 16th from 10:30 A.M. to 3:00 P.M.

Wednesday, May 13th: Theater
Saturday, May 16th: Student Multipurpose Hall
WHAT TO PREPARE:
Please prepare 32 bars of a contemporary musical theater piece or pop/rock song. We just want to see something that you love to sing and makes you happy. Please bring sheet music (for Wednesday, May 13th as an accompanist will be provided or a prepared accompaniment track (for Saturday May 16th)). A Bluetooth speaker will be available for you to pair with if you have a track. You may pair with our speaker or bring your own, but proper amplification is required. Playing a track from a cell phone without a means of amplification is strongly discouraged. Please make sure sure the device from which you are playing is charged prior to your arrival.

CASTING BREAKDOWN:
EMMA NOLAN — Teenager in Indiana. A reluctant poster child for LGBT youth. Very smart. A bit of a tomboy quality.
ALYSSA GREENE — A cheerleader and top student. Secretly Emma’s girlfriend. Faces constant pressure from her mother and friends.
BARRY GLICKMAN — Flamboyant Broadway star. Completely politically incorrect and doesn’t know it. Longs to give Emma the prom he was unable to have as a teen. Seeking an actor who plays late 30s and up.
DEE DEE ALLEN — Broadway diva. A huge ego to match her huge talent. Hilariously self-involved but yearns to do something good for someone other than herself. Seeking an actor who plays late 30s and up.
MR. HAWKINS — The straitlaced school principal. An ally to Emma and a long-time fan of Dee Dee. Seeking an actor who plays early-to-mid 30s and up.
TRENT OLIVER — Pretentious Juilliard graduate recently cast in the non-Equity tour of Godspell. Loves to hear himself speak. Seeking an actor who plays late 20s and up.
ANGIE DICKINSON — An ensemble member in the Broadway production of Chicago. Jaded Fosse girl with a heart of gold. Seeking an actor who plays late 20s and up.
MRS. GREENE — Alyssa’s intimidating, conservative, but ultimately loving mother. The head of the PTA. Seeking an actor who plays early 40s and up.
SHELDON — A charismatic press agent. Seeking an actor who plays mid-to-late 20s and up.
SHELBY, KAYLEE, NICK, KEVIN — Other students at school who bully (but eventually learn to accept) Emma.
