Auditions for the Missoula Children's Theatre production of Treasure Island will be held from 3:15-5:15 on Monday, March 24th, in the Moran Prairie Gym. There are roles for students in 1st - 5th grade and approximately 50-60 students will be cast to appear in the show. Up to 4 students will be cast as Assistant Directors. Unfortunately, there is no guarantee that everyone who auditions will be cast in the play. Students wishing to audition must arrive by 3:15 pm and stay for the entire two-hour session. This is a group audition–no advance preparation is necessary. Students should just be ready to come and have a good time!
Rehearsals will be conducted every day (Monday 3/24 - Friday 3/28) from 3:15 - 7:30 pm. Although not all cast members will be needed at every session, those auditioning must have a clear schedule for the entire week and if selected, be able to attend all rehearsals required for their role and be available for all scheduled performances. A detailed rehearsal schedule will be distributed at the conclusion of the audition and students will not be excused for appointments, practices, etc. Approximately one-third of those who are cast in the show will need to stay for the first rehearsal, which will take place from 5:30 - 7:30 pm, following the auditions. Cast members scheduled for the full 4 hours and 15 minutes will be asked to bring a sack lunch, dinner or snack to be eaten during the 15-minute break between sessions.
The performances will be held in the Moran Prairie Gym on Saturday, March 29, at 2:00 and 4:30 pm. The performances will be free to attend, but we'll be accepting donations for Maddie's Place, a local non-profit that provides medical care in a nurturing environment for substance-exposed infants.
Parents must pre-register their students to audition. We are unable to allow students to audition on Monday 3/24 without a signed permission form completed through this CheddarUp registration process.
