Community Theater Green Room Discussion Board: AUDITIONS--monologues or cuttings?

Message

   I like cuttings, not monologues. I like to see if the auditioners can think on their feet and how they react with the other auditioners. I also take digital photos, shoulders and head, print them out and staple them to the audition forms to use later.  I put a measuring tape on the wall to let me know the auditioner's height too. Helps with putting characters together who audition on different nights.

	I like doing show sides - along with this I give written character descriptions. I always give them a few mins. to go over the material and rehearse with a partner. We also take pictures and attach them to the audition sheet. And the audition sheet asks for their height and "age range". Susan
