Have you ever had a once in a lifetime opportunity? A chance to do something you have never done before, let alone know someone else that had? That’s really how I envisioned auditioning for Shrek the Musical. Sure I have been in plays and musical in high school and community theater but never had I ever dreamed of Broadway.
Broadway auditions are like other auditions, which are a nerve-wracking and difficult experience for most actors, but they are an essential part of the job. Here's how the casting process generally works and a few tips on how to perform your best in front of the movie auditioning director or producer. For most roles, you (or your agent) must submit a photo and resume to whoever is casting the production. Occasionally, you may hear about an "open call" where anyone may come to talent casting. These types of talent movie auditions are often called "cattle calls" because hundreds of people show up and are quickly herded through. However, most Broadway talent movie auditions are invitation only.
There are some tips for the people who are going to the auditions. Read the script. Find every small detail about the character you will be in Broadway movie auditions. Lines aren't important yet... just focus on who the character is. Where is she from? How old is she? How does she feel about the other characters in the story? When you know everything there is to know about the character, then it's time to learn your lines before the Broadway movie auditions. Use whatever technique works best for you. Although you shouldn't be expected to know all your lines at the audition, it's better to be safe than sorry.
