If you choose a monologue that you enjoy preparing and presenting, your audition will be more successful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your monologue should demonstrate your abilities. Always choose material that is within your range of life and stage experience. Parts which call for extremes of accent, age, or occupation should be avoided. Work honestly within your limitations. Young actors often ask about auditions, &#8220;What does the faculty want?&#8221; A much better question is, &#8220;How can I best show them what I am?&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Always read the whole play from which you are taking your monologue; only by doing this will you gain real insight into the life of your character and hints as to how your monologue should be played.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Seek the help of teachers or friends with theatre experience when preparing your presentation. Props should not be used in your audition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You may prepare to stand or sit for your audition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wear appropriate clothing that you are comfortable moving in so as not to distract or detract from your work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Begin your audition by introducing yourself, stating your name. Then introduce your monologue including the name of your character and the play. For example, &#8220;Hello, I&#8217;m Jane Smith. I&#8217;ll be performing Nora from &#8216;A Doll&#8217;s House&#8217;.&#8221; After your introduction, pause before you begin the piece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do not direct your monologue directly at the faculty. Place the person you are talking to in the monologue on one side or the other and beyond the faculty. Do not make direct eye contact with the faculty during your piece. It is often helpful to &#8220;cast&#8221; the person you are speaking to in the monologue and place them at a spot beyond the faculty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When your piece is finished (and don&#8217;t rush the ending!), pause for a moment to let the piece &#8216;finish&#8217; and then make eye contact with the faculty who will ask you to take a seat for the interview portion of the audition. (You may say &#8220;thank you&#8221; if you wish but avoid finishing your audition by saying &#8220;scene&#8221;.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Above all, enjoy your audition. Relax, breathe and enjoy this opportunity to perform.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\t<\/div>\n\t<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n\t\t( function( $ ) {\n\t\t\tlet panel = document.getElementById('block_acf-block-69611f990d006-acc-content-panel');\n\n\t\t\t\/*\n\t\t\t * Need to set a value for maxHeight to initialize the accordion properly.\n\t\t\t * If we don't include this conditional, the accordion doesn't nicely transition to open\/close on the first click.\n\t\t\t *\/\n\t\t\tif ( 1 == 0 ) {\n\t\t\t\tpanel.style.maxHeight = 0 == 1 ?
