2025 - NEWSIES JR. AUDITIONS
Extra! Extra! Hey, look at the headlines, historical news is being made…
SOO YOUTH THEATRE WILL BE PRESENTING NEWSIES JR.!
APRIL 10-13, 2025.

AUDITIONS WILL BE HELD STARTING FEBRUARY 2ND!!!
LEADING ROLES: SOLO MATERIAL REQUIRED ONLY IF YOU ARE AUDITIONING FOR A LEAD! PREPARE ONE VERSE OF A SONG OF THE CHARACTER YOU ARE AUDITIONING FOR!
ENSEMBLE: PLAN TO READ LINES FROM THE SHOW AND LEARN A SHORT MUSICAL SEGMENT THAT YOU CAN SING IN SMALL GROUPS OR BY YOURSELF IF YOU WOULD LIKE A SOLO VOCAL LINE IN THE SHOW.
ALL CAST MEMBERS CAN EXPECT TO DANCE, ACT, AND SING IN THE SHOW.
CALLBACKS!!!!
Callbacks are held only if needed! Sometimes roles are decided from the initial auditions and don’t require a callback. Other times we call back just a certain group if there are multiple possibilities or combos of characters that need to work well together. Do not panic if you do not get a callback! We very likely have already found your spot!!!
NO CAST!!!
This can happen if we exceed the number of actors we can have in a single show. It can also happen if we feel the actor is not quite ready for the MainStage. If that is the case, it is usually not a reflection of talent or ability! Our spring show rehearsals often occur in the evenings and we work hard and fast! The final weeks of rehearsal will be a solid week of later nights with a very full week before show week. Please consider this as you make plans to audition! We want everyone to have a good experience!! If for any reason you do not get cast, we truly encourage you to try a class or a camp show for your first theater experience!
