Informational Meeting
Wednesday, April 10, 6-7pm
Zoom – Meeting ID 889 7024 8092
This meeting is specifically designed for those who are new to our program or to theatre in general. We will be discussing time commitment, audition process, and volunteer information. This meeting is not required, but highly recommended for those who have not done theatre before. This meeting may go later depending on questions.
Oliver! Ages 10-18
Youth Summer Theatre allows everyone ages 10- 18 to participate in a full-scale musical production! Youth will attend rehearsals to prepare for Oliver!, and participate in four live performances on stage at Parkland’s Harold and Jean Minor Theatre! They will learn singing and choreography, as well as theatrical aspects such as costuming, makeup, and stage presence. If you have any questions, call 217-367-1544 or email info@urbanaparks.org
Auditions Call 217-367-1544 or visit www.bit.ly/ystauditions24 to schedule an audition. Auditions take place at the Phillips Recreation Center. If you are unable to make these scheduled times, ask about making alternate arrangements. Auditions last approximately 45 minutes and begin each half hour.
There are 10 available spots in each time slot. If you are auditioning for a solo, you do not need to audition for chorus as well. Please only sign up for one time slot.
Note: It is free to audition, but you are not guaranteed a part until you register for the program (not just auditions) and pay the program fee. Registration begins December 6, but you can wait until after auditions to register. The final deadline is May 13. After that, parts may be recast if participants have not registered.

Attendance is required for Cue-to-Cue, the entirety of Tech Week, and all performances. No rehearsals on June 19 or July 4
