2. All Actors: Provide 3-4 copies of your theatre resume and 3-4 copies of a recent headshot/ photograph- one for each director.

3. All Actors: Please arrive at least 10-15 minutes prior to your audition timeslot so you have time to fill out your audition form.

Only Actors who choose to audition for the musical, Sweeney Todd: In addition to the one required monologue, you are also required to perform 16-32 bars of music (no more than 1-minute in length) from a musical. (The song selection should not be from Sweeney Todd.) Please bring one copy of readable sheet music (not lead sheets, a condensed form of musical notation) for the musical director/accompanist. The sheet music should already be in your key- no transposition, please.

1. Auditions are open to all current Salem State University students and local community members.

2. All BFA Performance students are required to participate in repertory auditions for Theatre Department Callan/Mainstage productions.
