St. Francis High School

Additional Audition Information:

The audition will consist of a reading from the script which will be provided at sign in and 16 bars of a Broadway show song of your choice.

After your audition application form is completed, your picture taken, and your reading prepared, you may proceed to the auditorium to perform your reading and your song.

All those auditioning must come prepared with 16 bars of any Broadway show song to be performed a capella. The song does not need to come from Mamma Mia. Choose music that will best showcase your talents. As much as you may like a song, it may not give an accurate representation of your vocal ability.

There will NOT be a specific dance audition.

A tentative cast list will be posted by Wednesday, December 7th, at St. Francis and on the “Mamma Mia” web page on the school website (www.stfrancishigh.org) under the Fine Arts tab.
