A letter from the director:
Welcome friends! I'm so excited that you're visiting this page. We have such a magical summer prepared for you all! Disney musicals are some of the most uplifting musicals to be a part of, and all of our performers get the chance to be a part of two of the most popular ones this year. I wanted to approach Spotlight Kids Company's TENTH year of theatre magic with an emphasis on happiness, kindness, and most of all, family.
Come join our SKC family this summer - it will be a memorable one!

Summer 2022 Audition Information

Selecting an Audition Song

Filming Your Audition

Finishing
​Touches

Performers get to select any song they would like to sing for their audition. Choose a song that is in the style of a Disney show, and make sure it showcases YOU! We suggest exploring at the following options:
  • Anything Disney, of course!
  • Matilda the Musical
  • Annie
  • Seussical
  • Dear Edwina or Junie B Jones
  • Rodgers and Hammerstein
  • Lerner and Loewe
  • Ahrens and Flaherty
  • Pasek and Paul
Once you've chosen a song, identify one minute of the song you'd like to film. You are also responsible for finding a backing karaoke track to work with. Check Youtube or PianoTrax for help with a track. Once you know your one minute cut of your song, it's time to practice until you are ready to film!
  1. Film LANDSCAPE (horizontally).
  2. Use two devices to film - one to play your backing karaoke track and one to film with.
  3. Wear a formal outfit and look your best. Try to avoid crazy patterned clothes or looking disheveled. This may be our first impression of you!
  4. Use a plain background with no distractions.
  5. Introduce yourself with your full name, your age/grade, and what song you will be singing.
  6. Film your song a few times and find the take you are happiest with! Don't worry... there will be bloopers.
  7. Upload your final take to YouTube as an unlisted or private link - then take your link and paste it into the box in the Audition Form.
Once you have your perfect audition video uploaded to YouTube, it's time to submit your audition form! Fill out all of the details in the form below, including your conflicts for the summer. Don't forget to put your  YouTube link (set to public or unlisted) in the correct box.
​Audition forms MUST be submitted by May 8th, 2022 at 11:59pm.

Once you click submit, your audition process is finished! We will email you back to confirm that your audition was received and that your video works. If you don't receive an email within 48 hours, please reach out to spotlightkidscompany@gmail.com.

Callbacks will be held (if needed) by invitation only May 9th - 12th, 2022, depending on conflicts. Please don't forget to mention any conflicts for May 9th-12th if you have them. 

    Audition Form

    Auditions close SUNDAY, MAY 8TH, 2022 at 11:59pm.

    Please note that there will be a tuition fee charged (between $350 and $450) for all materials and time. If needed, we offer partial scholarships and payment plans. We do not want financial issues to deter your participation, so please reach out if you have any questions or concerns!
    Please upload your AUDITION SUBMISSION to YouTube as a PUBLIC or UNLISTED video.
    STUDENT AGREEMENT: By electronically signing (typing my name below), I am agreeing to play any role assigned to me without complaint. I will accept any costume, line or solo changes as given by the director. I am also agreeing to attend all rehearsals and performances UNLESS my conflicts are previously communicated. I will attend rehearsal when called and I will come prepared. I vow to be a respectful, kind, and dedicated cast member.
    ​PARENT AGREEMENT: By electronically signing (typing my name below), I am agreeing to support my child's involvement in this production. I understand the commitments required for my child to participate in SKC's Summer Musical, including attendance at all rehearsals and performances, ensuring tuition is paid, and any communication required throughout the process. I agree to support my child's involvement in this production.
    ​Please give your weekly recurring and one-time conflicts, Monday-Sunday from May 9th, 2022 until the performances. Although we understand that conflicts arise, please understand that the addition of many conflicts could jeopardize a performer's role. Rehearsal schedules will be created in relation to the conflicts we are given, and conflicts DO sometimes play a role in the part you are given. However, this being said, be honest about your conflicts! Please be willing to dedicate time to our show - we don't have a lot of time to make this happen, so we want our performers to be dedicated and committed to creating the best product.
