Welcome to Stage Notes Academy Of Performing Arts auditions for Into The Woods! We are so happy you are interested in being part of this show!
We understand auditions can be a bit overwhelming, so we want to assure you, we are rooting for you! We are looking just as much for good attitudes and hard workers as we are for raw talent.
Be assured we want to help you be the best you can be onstage and off! We know that placing actors and crew in a position for which they are not ready does not set them up for success, so we do our best to fit each person to a task that stretches them, yet is an achievable goal.
We know it can be disappointing to not get a part, but we also know that being given a part for which you are not ready is not good for you either. Look at each experience as a chance to grow and learn something new!
This show is musically very challenging. The vocals are difficult and not for beginners. The UT Tyler students who are in the Musical Theater class are required to participate in the cast. After filling those roles, other cast members will be selected based on ability AND location (see above "audition requirements").
If you are not right for a part in this show, it’s ok. You may be perfect for a part in the next show! Keep working, keep auditioning, keep growing!
If the necessary vocal requirements for this show are beyond your current abilities, we recommend taking a class or enlisting the help of a vocal coach to work on improving your vocal abilities for future shows.
We believe everyone has room for growth!
Thank you for auditioning and we hope you will enjoy being a part of our theater family!

We are excited for you to audition! It's going to be such a fun show! We need each person to sign up for a time slot in Sign Up Genius. There are four spots in each time slot, so up to four people will be auditioning together. So if you want to sign up with a friend or two, you can audition together!
