Event Details

A prince, a pumpkin, some mice, and a fairy godmother all add up to a magical evening for one girl named Cinderella. This classic princess fairy-tale gets a new spin with Rodgers and Hammerstein’s songs including “In My Own Little Corner”, “Ten Minutes Ago” and “Impossible/It’s Possible” alongside a witty and romantic story by Tony Award nominee Douglas Carter Beane. Don’t wait until the clock strikes twelve to audition for this enchanting musical!

Auditions will be held at the ARTfactory on Friday, October 22 from 5-9 p.m. and Saturday, October 23 from 9 a.m. – 1 p.m. with callbacks on Sunday, October 24 from 1 – 5 p.m. PLEASE NOTE: This show is a remount form our 2019 production of Cinderella that was postponed due to Covid. The previous cast members were given the opportunity to remain in the roles they were assigned. As a result, the following lead roles are available: Fairy Godmother, Topher, Sebastian, Ear of Cavendish, Gabrielle and Jean Michele. All Cinderella participants who were cast as ensemble during the first production may audition again to be considered for a different part without jeopardizing their current role.

Audition Details (PLEASE READ)

The production staff has asked everyone to prepare a bit differently from how Pied Piper Theatre has auditioned in the past. As an actor, working for a variety of directors and styles, is a benefit. Just as every director has their own vision for a show, so do they for auditions.

How many times have you walked out of an audition thinking “I didn’t get to read for the role I wanted” or “sing for the character of your choice”. This is your opportunity to do just that. SHOW us what you can do for the role you would like to play.

For this audition we are asking performers to prepare 16-32 bars of a song from the show. Yes, from the show. A cappella is acceptable, but we would prefer that you sing with an instrumental track. You may use your phone to play your tracks. If you are worried about volume, you may bring your own portable speaker.

For the monologue portion, please study one of the sides provided. What are sides? Sides are selections from the script chosen to specifically highlight certain characters. If you aren’t sure which character to choose, pick from any of the sides to prepare. If you are more comfortable performing a monologue, you may do that instead of sides.

Due to the style of the show, dance will not be a part of the audition.
