Students should prepare a memorized dramatic monologue between 30 seconds and one
minute long. The monologue may come from a play, tv show, movie, or video game. It
must be fully memorized, as this portion will not be a cold-read audition.
Auditions will take place in groups. Each student will perform their prepared monologue
and then be given lines from the script to read with another student. Once their assigned
audition time is complete, they are welcome to leave.
