At auditions, we will play a couple drama games to warm up, 
the kids will do a cold read from the script, and they will sing 
30-45 seconds of a song of their choosing - it does not have to be a song from the show. KEEP IT SHORT!!!

Auditions are optional.  Those who decide not to audition will still get to experience all the workshops that camp has to offer – singing, dancing, acting, set construction, and costuming.  


In the interest of time, please only attend 1 audition session.

Group Text
Previously we have use the REMIND APP, however recently due to mobile carrier issues, the app does not function consistently, so we are going to an SMS Broadcast platform called Text-Em-All.  This will be our first time using this platform, so fingers crossed!​

Drop Off & Pick Up

Enter Princeton Community High School through Door 10 around the back side of the building. The drama room is the 2nd door on the left and leads into the auditorium.

If a child must bring a phone, we will hold it for them until the end of the day.
