How to prepare for your audition performance:

 

Everyone auditioning will have one minute to perform for us:

• ADULTS (ages 19+): Please prepare a 1-minute part of a song IN ENGLISH. You should act and show movement and any other talents while you are singing. You may bring music as long as it is only instrumental. 

• DANCE (ages 15+): Please prepare a 1-minute dance. You may bring music as long as it is only instrumental. 

• GIRLS (ages 8+): 

  • If you are a singer... Please prepare a 1-minute part of a song IN ENGLISH. You should act and show movement, dance or gym or any other talents while you are singing. You may bring music as long as it is only instrumental. 

  • If you are a gymnast, or an actress who doesn't sing... Please prepare a 1-minute performance showing movement, dramatic acting or gym (or any other talents). You may bring music as long as it is only instrumental. 

 

Be sure to see the list of parts we’re looking for!

 

What to wear and what to bring:

• Please wear a skirt that covers your knees, but is not so long that it interferes with your movement.

• Dancers and gymnasts: Please wear a leotard under your shirt so that we do not see your tummy! Please wear leggings that cover your knees and a skirt that you can move in.

• Please make sure your hair is not blocking your face.

• Please bring drinks and a snack.

• Please bring patience. When it is your turn to perform everyone will be quiet and watch. When it is not your turn to perform, you will need to be quiet and watch.

• Remember to be at the Matnas fifteen minutes before your time to receive your audition number and to warm up (especially dance/gym).

 

Can I bring a friend / sister with me when I audition?

Girls ages 8-12 auditions:

Mothers only may attend the 8-12 year old time slot with their daughters. 

 

Girls ages 13+ and adult auditions:

Auditions are for the girls / women auditioning ONLY.  No spectators are allowed.

​

Callbacks:

If a girl 14 or younger daughter is invited to a callback, mothers must attend the callback session.

 

Is Regal Productions really looking for new people?  Yes! We really want new talent and fresh faces!

 

But I've tried out before and didn't get a part! Keep on trying! Many of our actresses were turned down audition after audition, sometimes even when they had the main part the previous year! Each of our shows is different, so each year is a brand new audition process. 

​

Can I audition if I don’t live in Bet Shemesh? Yes, but all rehearsals will take place in the Bet Shemesh area.

 

Do I have to audition in English? Yes! Our show is in English so we want to hear you sing and speak in English.

 

If I get a part, what kind of commitment is being in the show?

It's a very large commitment - but very worthwhile! Cast members attend multiple rehearsals per week, some running as late as 10:30 pm, plus occasional costume fittings. Full-cast rehearsals will take place every morning during Chanukah. There are several performance dates in Israel, plus a one-week tour of England. Please understand that you cannot take part in any other chug that interferes with your commitment to our show.

 

What kind of investment is being in the show?
Rehearsals for girls and dancers take the form of a paid chug. There will be some costume expenses (e.g. makeup, shoes), as well as travel expenses. More details are on the registration form. Feel free to ask us if you have any concerns!

​

Can a friend and I audition together? (a duet song / dance etc?)

In the past when people audition together, it's usually distracting and neither girl gets a fair chance to shine! So please, plan to do your best solo audition. If you are doing gymnastics and need someone to support you, that's fine, but it's then still only your audition - she will need to do her own.
