Our auditions kicked off today and all I can say is WOW!
So many of our students showed up and gave it their all today at the auditions for Annie, Mr. Warbucks and Grace Farrell. We were overwhelmed by the interest and enthusiasm the kids are showing towards the musical and are working very hard to accommodate all the students who signed up for potential roles.
FRIENDLY REMINDER:
While everyone in grades one to four will participate in the singing chorus of Annie Kids, there are a limited number of speaking roles which need to be filled through the audition process. Please know that it is very courageous of these young people to sign up and recite their lines and lyrics and we TRULY APPRECIATE ALL THEIR HARD WORK AND EFFORTS :)
Parents, please take the time to remind your children that not everyone will be able to earn the roles that they may desire, but they are still a part of the production whether they are cast to a role or remain in the chorus.
We saw over 100 students today and have 65 more students signed up to audition tomorrow. There are another 50 students on Tuesday well as 69 more for Additional roles.
Students may be asked to come to a "call back" audition on Friday the 5th, or Wednesday the 10th where they will be asked to sing a portion of a song from the musical. The song can be any from "Annie Kids" of their choice, or we will use "Tomorrow" as a default song. See the link above for the lyrics to all the songs. I am not permitted to post the audio files due to copyright restrictions. Most songs are found online easily enough.
I appreciate your support of the music program and this HUGE undertaking.
Love,
Mrs. McBride
