Seussical Kids

February 6, 2023 Fine Arts, Lower School News

The Fine Arts Department is excited to announce auditions for this year’s lower school musical, Seussical Kids! Auditions are open to students in 3rd grade and 4th grade. You can sign up for an audition at either the Monticello Road campus (Tuesday, February 14) or the St. Andrews Road campus (Wednesday, February 15). Some students may be invited to participate in a callback on Thursday, February 16. The directing team will reach out to these families individually.

Students should be prepared to do the following at their audition:

  • Sing 30 seconds of any song, a cappella
  • Read a short paragraph that the directing team will give them

Auditions will take place in the Lower School Music Classroom on each campus. Students should be picked up immediately following their audition. Students who are not picked up will be escorted to extended care.

In addition to signing up for an audition time, all students who audition must complete the audition form before the audition.
