Auditions


Entry into the Young Australian Broadway Chorus is by audition. The program is open to prospective students aged 8 to 18 years.

Our auditions are fun, relaxed, free of charge and are designed to give prospective students and parents an insight to our classes.

Auditions are conducted in groups of approximately 15-20 participants, and parents are invited into the session as a supportive audience. The group, which at times will be split into smaller groups and pairs, is led through various performing activities, including improvisation, voice and movement. Assessments are based on participation in these exercises.

After the audition, successful applicants are offered a placement at their preferred venue. We do our best to place each student in their chosen class providing their age and ability is appropriate and there is space in the class. Students are required to complete an enrolment form and confirm a payment plan before commencing class.

We ask prospective students to bear in mind three key points.
 

  1. Enjoy yourself! The audition is with a group, and you don't have to read anything, or do anything on your own.
  2. Auditions are simple. So if you do have previous performing arts experience, make sure you participate in all activities to the best of your abilities to show the teaching panel what you can do.
  3. Don't worry if you have never done anything like this before. Lots of young people audition for us without any previous performing experience.

Auditions are held several times throughout the year.
