Audition Requirements

  • Auditions are optional! Every student in the workshop will be busy, challenged, and have every opportunity to learn regardless of whether they are a member of our ensemble or cast in a leading role.

  • Please submit an audition if you would like to be considered for a character listed below.

  • If you would like to audition for a character who does not have a specific audition side, please just pick your favourite one! You may audition for multiple characters if you wish.

  • There are also many featured roles not listed below that will be cast during the week from the ensemble.

  • All roles will be cast gender-neutral.


Video Submissions:

  • Please try to combine your introduction, song, and script together into one video.

  • Please email auditions to admin@BeXDcreate.com

  • Video submissions due: 2nd September 2024.


Slate (Intro):

  • Include a short snippet at the beginning introducing yourself so we can get to know you. Include your name, which character/s you'd like to be considered for, any performance and dance experience you have, as well as something fun about yourself!


Audition Song:

  • A 1-minute audition cut of any Disney, DreamWorks, or contemporary song. You may sing a song from the show if you wish. If you have never selected an ‘audition cut’ before, here are a few guidelines:

  • Choose a section of the song that shows off your vocal ability and range, as well as your acting ability.

  • A verse & chorus or the last minute of the song are usually a good choice.

  • If there is a specific character you want to audition for, please select a song that is appropriate to that character.

  • Don’t stress if your audition cut is over or under by a few seconds.


Audition Side:

  • Please prepare an audition side (short script) from this link for whichever character you would like to audition for. If you would like to audition for a character who does not have a specific audition side, please just pick your favourite one! You may audition for multiple characters if you wish. If you’re not auditioning for a specific character, please pick whichever script is your favourite! Try your best to learn it from memory. If you have never recorded an audition or self-tape like this before, here are a few guidelines:

  • Have someone just behind the camera reading the other character’s lines.

  • Face front on and look at the person you are talking to rather than down the camera lens when you are delivering your lines. This will help you ‘act’ the scene out too.
