Leading Ladies Callbacks


Thank you to everyone who auditioned. It was great to see so many of you come out. I hope I see all of the great underclassmen at the auditions for the Freshman/Sophomore Showcase.


If you were not called back, there is a completed audition feedback form available for you in Mrs. Whalen’s office. Feel free to stop by throughout the day. I am also happy to talk to you about your audition.


If you were called back, please pick up a packet in Mrs. Whalen’s office (C-8). There are multiple packets for some of the characters, so please be sure to get each packet labeled with your character name. We will meet in the choir room Thursday at 3:00 pm. Please be familiar with the scenes you will be reading!
