Players must be available full-time from April 28 - August 30. All positions are paid. All roles are open with the exception of Alice, Mama and Papa Murphy, and Margo in Bright Star.
Preliminary auditions will be done virtually. For your submission, please prepare 32 bars each of two contrasting songs and an optional, one-minute comedic monologue. If you are able to confidently play a bluegrass instrument (piano, fiddle, guitar, upright bass, mandolin, banjo, etc), please also include a demonstration of your ability in your audition. Videos should be submitted via YouTube link above.
Callbacks will be held in person by invitation only January 25 in Salt Lake City, UT and February 1 Rigby, ID where individuals will be asked to dance, sing, and possibly participate in a cold read.
Technical Applications

Yes, but housing will only be provided for cast members, so both members of the married couple would need to be hired or else you’d need to find your own housing in order to stay together. Otherwise, the married cast member would be provided housing or could commute.

Auditions will be open December 15 - January 15. After this time, in-person callback invitations will be extended. Those invited can choose from two callback dates, one in Salt Lake City, UT and one in Rigby, ID. Attendees will be sent music to learn prior to callbacks. At callbacks, performers will have a chance to sing, dance, and possibly read sides. Throughout this process, you may be contacted for an interview over Zoom or in person at callbacks.
Casting will begin after our second callback date. Those cast will be notified via phone call. Due to the sheer volume of applicants, we will only be able to reach out to those cast. When casting is finalized, a post will be made on social media.
We understand there are many ways you could spend your summer and we are honored you’re considering spending it with us! Throughout the process, if you need an update to make a decision about other performing opportunities, feel free to reach out and we will do our best to provide you with an update.
