No. You only need to come on either Saturday or Sunday, not both days.

Magical Starlight Theatre does not schedule audition time slots. Everyone auditions on a first-come, first-served basis.

Auditions are held on the upper level of the Alfred Rubin Riverwalk Community Center located at 305 Jackson Ave, Naperville, IL 60540. Upon arriving, proceed to registration located in the “Community Hall” room (also on the upper level) – signs will be posted to help guide you.

Magical Starlight Theatre casts youth and adults of all ages; however, youth auditionees are required to be enrolled in 4th grade or above at the time of the audition.

Auditions will take about one hour – we strive to allow each and every auditionee an equal opportunity to audition their best. Depending on the number of people that show up, there could be a wait of about 30-60 minutes before being called from the waiting room into the audition room.

Auditionees will be taken in small groups.  After music and dialog, the group will immediately move to the choreography audition room.

• • Each auditionee will sing part of a song from the show (see the audition materials).
    • For the vocal audition, pick from the song keys provided in the audition materials that you feel most comfortable with.
    • A music recording is provided.
    • Other recordings and personal accompanists are not permitted.
    • Auditionees may be stopped before finishing if the staff has heard what they need.
  • The Music Director will ask auditionees to sing a scale to determine their range.
  • Auditionees will participate in a monologue from the script.
    • Monologue cuttings will be available beforehand on the website (see the audition materials).
    • You may peruse the monologues in the registration room as needed.
    • Auditionees may be asked to read additional cuttings of the director’s choice.
  • Auditionees will then learn and perform a brief piece of choreography as a group.
  • The choreographer may ask you to stay, if they would like to see more.
