We audition for ALL 7 of our Main Season Shows over two days. It gives actors a chance to audition for multiple directors at once and widen their chances of getting cast at HART. HART will be releasing a video taking you through exactly what to expect at auditions but here is a quick overview:
You only need to attend one audition day.
When you arrive, you will check in at the HART Main Stage Lobby. There, you will receive an audition number and we will ask you to fill out one audition form for each director you plan to audition for. This form asks things like what shows you are available for, any known out of town dates, roles you are interested in (its fine to say ANY!), and what vocal part you usually sing if applicable (SATB). It also gives you a space to tell us anything that will help us support you during the audition and rehearsal process and a space to list relevant experience.
If you have a headshot and resume, please bring a copy for each director you plan to audition for. If not, please list relevant experience on your audition form
There will be maps posted around both buildings showing you exactly where each shows auditions are located. Each play or musical gets their own space to hold auditions or call backs. There is also a help desk in the Main Stage Lobby and right outside the Fangmeyer building entrance to help answer any questions.

If Auditioning for Musicals or Musicals and Plays:
Groups of 5 will go into the Main Auditorium to audition for all 4 musical directors at once. We will have an accompanist, so please bring clearly marked sheet music. You can either prepare 1 32-bar cut of a song OR two 16-bar cuts that show contrasting styles. This is typically around one minute to one and a half minutes of music total.
After your group has finished their auditions, you will be escorted back to the call back board. This board will list your number under directors who want to see more of you later that evening or if they need you to attend the dance or movement call.
Once you have completed the musical part of your audition, you are free to go to any of the 3 play auditions that you want to attend.
Once everyone interested has completed their musical auditions, the movement and dance call will begin. Helpers will go around and make sure all auditionees are aware that dance call is about to begin, so don’t worry about missing it. This year, there will be a Movement call, with options to demonstrated advanced movement, followed by a Tap Call. This takes place on the main stage. You are allowed to change clothes for the dance call if you would like. If you plan to audition for a tap role in Anything Goes, please bring tap shoes. We plan to post the tap dance call in January BEFORE auditions so that you have time to learn it.
After dance and movement call, actors who received a “call back” can go to see each musical director to continue their audition.

If auditioning for Plays only:
Once you have checked in and filled out your audition forms, you can go to each plays audition room to complete your auditions with them.
