AUDITION Information

  • It is expected that if you are cast that you are fully available July 25 – August 4. 

  • Sign up for an audition day…

NOTE: This is recommended, but not required.  Walk in auditions are welcome and will be seen on a first come, first served basis as time allows.

  • Print forms and fill out prior to attending. 

NOTE: If you are not able to print the forms, check with some of these business for printing options (any fees are your responsibility): Public libraries, shipping companies (i.e., UPS Store, Allegan UStor), printing companies (i.e. JP Printing, Jiffy Print). A small number of forms will be available at the auditions.

ENSEMBLE Auditions Information

The cast for this production will be supported by an ENSEMBLE of community members.  

Those performing will either be: 

an actor or pair of actors (aged 18+)

OR 

a pair made up of a minor (aged 7-17) and an adult responsible for the minor. 

Certain ENSEMBLE roles will be utilized in various scenes but do NOT necessarily need to sing or follow specific choreography! 

The intent is to allow families to participate in this production without having a full rehearsal schedule or the pressure of memorizing lines, etc...

However, if an older participant of the pair (aged 15+) is interested in a speaking/singing role, that may be able to be accommodated – review the Character List and indicate your interest on your Audition Form.

We would like to cast enough people so we may even be able to offer the ENSEMBLE members without speaking roles a flexible performance schedule.  This will be discussed at your ENSEMBLE audition.

We’re looking forward to working with you to help us create a cast of fun, quirky, and well-crafted ENSEMBLE characters!

  • General Information

    • All ENSEMBLE auditions with a minor are to be done in pairs. If a family would like to audition together, there must be a parent/guardian with each child.

  • Forms/Paperwork to bring

    • Completed Conflict Calendar

    • Printed Headshots (a recent selfie is adequate)

    • Completed Cast Member Information (Audition Additional Information) form

    • Completed ACP Membership Application form (no payment is required at this time)

    • Completed Media Release Form for each person

  • Prepare/bring

    • An acapella “song and dance” routine or “staged recitation/spoken word” performance to ONE of the songs/lyrics listed from the ENSEMBLE Suggested Song List in the SIDES section

      • Keep it 30 seconds or less (We will stop you, so don’t go over or we will miss your ending!)

      • NO accompanist or sound system will be provided. 

    • Coordinating costumes (wear them!) in a manner that fits into the James and the Giant Peach world and allows you the movement to audition. See the Character List for possible ideas.

NOTE: If cast for the ENSEMBLE, the costume you audition in may become your wardrobe for the performance, but it is not guaranteed.

  • Additional notes

    • Ages 7 – 17 must be accompanied by an adult.
