Audition Information
"Joseph and The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat"

All updates will be posted here. The newest information will be listed at the top. We will also date and time any new details so that you know you have the most current information.

​

Our auditions for this are pretty spread out and ​there's a method to the scheduling madness, so rule of thumb: when in doubt, email me directly before you assume anything. It may take me a minute to get back to you, but I absolutely will. Thanks so much!

​

• March 22nd: ​

  • Audition Invites for our first live appointments will start to go out today and could take a bit. Thank you for your patience and for checking your email junk files (especially with any aol and yahoo email addresses)

• March 21st: 4pm

  • AUDITION TIPS for Brothers and Wives: We are looking to cast ACTORS who sing and dance. Since we do not have a true script to work with, when you are preparing your vocals, please take the time to make some strong, unique and bold choices; get creative, play and enjoy! ​

  • BROTHERS and WIVES: Please prepare the designated ENSEMBLE track in the DB file as well as any of the requested vocal material for Narrator or Brothers with songs (Pharaoh, Simeon, Reuben or Judah). This gives you more of a chance to share your acting/creative choices and our understudies for these roles will come from the Brothers and Wives so very helpful in this regard as well. 

  • I will be updating the site soon with our upcoming auditions and timeline. Please check back!

• March 17th: 4:30pm

  • MRS. POTIPHAR: Ideally, Gerry would like her to be 5'10+ which is why I have moved some of you wonderful actresses to The Wives. This may change, but for now...we are going to stick with this plan. 

  • WHO SHOULD TAPE CHOREOGRAPHY: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/saqtav1ee1rp57a/AACCmMNR0gFLD7kOsyG3LSEVa?dl=0

    • The Brothers and The Wives all must dance as well as sing and act.

    • Narrator should be a strong mover, so feel free to include combination as well if you can.

    • With Gerry in NY and Jen Lin's schedule, a lot of the auditions for this will be via video. I would recommend that you video tape the choreo as well just to cover all bases. Best effort and we appreciate this!

  • Must have local housing (LA or OC, etc.) for this contract. We do not have housing/travel in our budget. 

  • There will be Equity and Non Equity Contracts

    • We would prefer it if the videos did not require passwords, but if you do use a password...make sure you send it in the email with your video link. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

  • PLEASE BE CHECKING YOUR SPAM FOLDERS FOR EMAILS. Unfortunately, not everyone has been getting our emails, so check spam and then add us to your contact list. If you have an aol email address, more than likely, our emails will end up in your spam so please check there. Thank you!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

LIVE AUDITION CHECKLIST:

• Please clear ANY AND ALL conflicts with Julia Flores BEFORE you audition

• GENERAL NOTE: We are looking for strong actors and bold/unique personalities; make specific choices and enjoy!

• Please bring a stapled copy of your Headshot and Resume

• Please bring a copy of your Actor Contact Sheet 

• Please bring audition material for the role(s) you have been asked to read and any others you are interested in

• Always bring your music book just in case. Thank you!

• GENERAL NOTES: 

  • After 2+ years of being mostly on camera, many actors have let their stage muscles slacken a bit. I'm talking about the size of your voice (both volume and placement) and the size of your bodies. Take up space. Use your full instrument. And remember- La Mirada Theatre is a 1,251 seat theater and we need you to play to the last row.

  • We will ask everyone to please wear a mask while in the lobby area and inside the audition room until you audition. You are more than welcome to keep your mask on throughout though if you feel more comfortable and/or have recently been sick or exposed to COVID.
