Auditions: "The Addams Family (Young@Part)"

Next Generation is dying to see you audition for “The Addams Family (Young@Part)!”

Auditions will be August 25 and 26 (come to one only) at the KENTLANDS MANSION, 320 Kent Square Road, Gaithersburg, MD 20878 (directly across from the Gaithersburg Arts Barn), from 6:15-8:45 pm. Please arrive on time and plan to stay the entire time on the day that you audition. Callbacks, if needed, will be held on August 27 and/or August 28. Please keep both evenings available.

Performances of “The Addams Family” will run October 24th - November 2nd (no performance on Halloween). A full performance schedule can be found on our website.

Auditions are open for performers ages 10-18. Next Generation Arts Council encourages performers of all backgrounds, ethnicities, gender identities, abilities, and experience levels to audition. Auditioners will be considered for all roles.

Be ready to sing 16-32 bars (no more than 30-60 seconds) of a song of your choosing (but see guidelines below). Dress in clothing you can move in, with sneakers or dance shoes. Please no boots, crocks, flip flops or other clunky or loose shoes. Bring a water bottle. Do not bring food.

Give some thought to the song you want to perform to be sure that it shows your singing and acting/storytelling ability and is appropriate both for your age as a performer and for a young audience. There are non-singing/non-solo roles in the show, but everyone must sing for the audition. We strongly recommend, but do not require, a musical theatre-style song.

PLEASE DO NOT sing a song from this show.

PLEASE BRING a pre-recorded musical accompaniment, pre-downloaded to a device so that you do not need to rely on the internet to play it, or be prepared to sing a cappella.

Not a performer, but interested in joining the creative team to assist with lights, sound, costumes, stage crew, or other production-related tasks? We will teach you how! Contact the director or come to the beginning of auditions to express interest. SSL or other theatre or service credits available.
