Emerson Shakespeare Society is hosting Spring 2021 Common Auditions! While the virtual format is still new for many of us, Emshakes is working to emulate the common auds process as much as possible. We, and many other orgs, are excited to see what you bring to this virtual process!! Video submissions will be run via google form. The deadline is Thursday, February 4th at 11:59pm.
Here are the details of how to apply and how callbacks will work (also see graphic below):
1. Commons auds submissions will be via self tape
2. Please prepare and film a 1.5-2 minute monologue if auditioning for plays and a cut of 32 bars or less of a song if auditioning for musicals
3. Fill out the google form with your personal information, answer any questions from directors, AND submit your audition video(s)
4. Once you have submitted your complete google form, you are done! Submissions close at 11:59pm on February 4th. You must submit by then to be considered.
5. Callback emails from the directors will go out and these callbacks will take place over Zoom Saturday, February 6th and Sunday, February 7th.
