Kid/Teen Cast Information

This is great for Kids/Teens (6-17 years), wanting to get started in theatre or taking their skill sets to the next level.  We typically offer up to 4 different casts for each show to give your child plenty of opportunities for different roles.

 

Your tuition COVERS the cost of ALL casts you're in (including Adult/Teen casts).  For Ex: If you want to be in more than one Kid/Teen Cast and/or you want to be in a Teen or Adult Cast. 

​

More experienced actors are welcome to audition for our Adult/Teen casts too! 

** To do so, fill out an addnt'l online audition form

**It's only necessary to audition one time even if you're participating in multiple casts such as Adult and/or Teen​

Rehearsal and Show Schedule

Starlight Theatre shows typically have 8-10 rehearsals before our Dress Rehearsal and Performances. It is expected that all actors practice what they learn at home to be fully prepared.​​

​Before selecting which casts your child is available, here are some things to consider:

  • You must be able to attend the Dress Rehearsal and ALL Performances for the cast/camp you select

  • If your child misses any rehearsal it is your responsibility to request the missed information from Starlight staff​ or speak to the Director to arrange for your actor to attend a make-up rehearsal

​

Auditions

​Audition forms MUST be submitted for both In Person and Video auditions.

If your child is also auditioning for Adult/Teen casts you must also submit a separate Adult/Teen audition form.
