Dear Parents and Guardians,
The audition for the Missoula Children's Theatre production of Peter and Wendy will be held on Monday, April 8 at the school gymnasium in Emery starting at 3:45 and lasting approximately two hours. There are roles for students currently in kindergarten through 12th grade. Approximately 50-60 local students will be cast to appear in the show with the MCT Tour Actor/Director. Up to 4 students will be cast as Assistant Directors. There is no guarantee that anyone who auditions will be cast in the play. Students wishing to audition must arrive by the scheduled starting time and stay for the entire two-hour session. The first rehearsal begins approximately 15-minutes after the audition.
This is a group audition–no advance preparation is necessary, but a smile never hurts. Students should just be ready to come and have a good time!
Rehearsals will be conducted every day from 3:45 to 8:00 at the gym and multipurpose room. Although not all cast members will be needed at every session, those auditioning must have a clear schedule for the entire week and if selected, be able to attend all rehearsals required for their role and be available for all scheduled performances. A detailed rehearsal schedule will be distributed at the conclusion of the audition. Cast members scheduled for the full 4 hours and 15 minutes will be asked to bring a sack lunch, dinner, or snack to be eaten during the 15-minute break between sessions.
The performances will be held on Saturday, April 13 at 3:00 PM and 7:00 PM and will be presented at the Emery Site Gymnasium.
The Missoula Children's Theatre is a non-profit organization based in Missoula, Montana. This coming year more than 65,000 cast members across the globe will take to the stage to the delight and applause of their families, friends, community, neighbors, and teachers! The residency in Bridgewater Emery School is made possible by the Bridgewater Emery Boosters.
