Open Auditions

Auditions will be held at The Columbia Theatre for the Performing Arts. 220 East Thomas Street, Hammond.

There will be two components to our Grease auditions:  a vocal/acting audition and a dance call.  If auditioning, you should plan to be here for approximately one hour.  

For the vocal audition:

Everyone auditioning must prepare 15-20 bars of a song to showcase their voice in the style of the character(s) they are auditioning for.  Plan to show us your ability to act through song. Choosing a song from Grease is allowed, but here’s a quick reference to other musical theatre songs that are good audition pieces for the various Grease characters:

All auditionees will be singing with piano accompaniment provided by our music director, Nathan Sumrall.  Please arrive with your sheet music in a binder and your selected bars highlighted for the accompanist.  You will be able to briefly discuss tempo with Nathan before you sing for us.  

For the dance call:

Please come familiar with the song “Hand Jive” if possible.  Be ready for a fast-paced dance audition, and dress to move.
