Bored? Thinking of auditioning for an amateur theater production near your home without knowing how to prepare or what to expect? Look no further! This post is all about overcoming the fear of auditions by teaching you everything you need to know, from what type of audition it is to what information should be included in an audition résumé. You will learn about different types of castings and how they work, as well as the importance of having a callback. We also have tips for getting ready before an audition, things not to bring with you on the day, and even how much money actors are usually paid. When auditioning for amateur productions, your résumé should include the following information: "How did you hear about this production? (e.g. Performers' League, District Theater, Playwright's Guild) "What type of play are you auditioning for? (e.g. New Play/Revised Play/Mainstage/Off-Broadway) "What type of role are you auditioning for? (This is also known as the "character breakdown. You can find this information in the casting or "part" section of the auditions listing.) "When are you available to work/rehearse? "What skills do you possess that may be beneficial to this production? (e.g. specific training, special skills, foreign language abilities, etc.)Auditions are typically held either at the theater or online. An online audition is one in which you submit video clips, usually via YouTube or Vimeo, using the casting company's provided guidelines. For example, your video clip submissions could include singing a short tune (maybe one minute), doing a monologue (a play scene performed by yourself), and/or dancing a choreography (if applicable). Online auditions are becoming more common, so be sure to check any casting listings for information about how your submission should be formatted. You will typically have a set amount of time in which to submit your audition, usually ranging from one week to two weeks, before it is due. Auditions in person are the most traditional way of auditioning. These auditions can take place at either the theater or anywhere that is convenient for you and/or the casting company. If you are asked to bring a headshot or résumé along with you, make sure it is professional looking with the same information listed above. You will need this when arriving at the venue or when filling out paperwork before your audition. When going to an in-person audition, it is a good idea to have a specific goal in mind. For example, you could prepare a monologue from a play that you know well and already have memorized. The only thing you would need to do is go over the lines beforehand. This way, once you arrive at the venue, you will be able to continue from where you left off with your monologue instead of having to stop and think about what comes next. Memorization will come in handy when it comes down to final callbacks at the theater for larger roles because the director won't have time to run lines with all of the actors auditioning; therefore, they want the best actor for that role. cfa1e77820
