Disney Channel The Music In You

I hope everyone is excited about starting rehearsals on the 28th, 29th or 30th (whichever day your cast rehearses)! If you want to get a taste of what we will be doing, be sure to check out the Disney Channels "HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL: The Music In You," a special for kids, families and educators presented in association with the NAMM Foundation, which will premiere SUNDAY, JANUARY 20 (8:00 p.m., ET/PT) on Disney Channel.

The "documusical" from Academy Award-winning filmmaker Barbara Kopple ("Harlan County, USA," "American Dream"), tells the story of H2O, a student theatre company in Fort Worth, Texas, as they mount the stage adaptation of the movie and experience the positive effect music and the arts can have in their lives.
For a sneak preview of this documentary, check out the two clips online at http://tv.disney.go.com/disneychannel/originalmovies/highschoolmusical/musicinyou/watchHSM.html
And remember to tune in or set your recorder forSUNDAY, JANUARY 20 (8:00 p.m., ET/PT) on Disney Channel.

Common Audition Questions

COMMON AUDITION QUESTIONS

1.How should I prepare my song?

Choose a song with lyrics you know well. (Happy Birthday can actually be a great song to audition with!) Most students choose an up-tempo show tune. Ballads are difficult unless you have had a lot of vocal training. You need to put spirit, energy and emotion into your song. Always try to add some movement to your song even if it is just a step down stage or a few gestures. Musical theatre is the integration of acting and singing.

2. How do I prepare for acting?

Cold readings are part of the audition. Older students are given a script and asked to read a character's lines. The director is looking for expression, diction, energy, body movement. Younger students are given a scenario to act out. Acting is very important for the lead parts. Supporting roles and chorus roles are also important training fields but less demanding on the younger actors.

3. How can I participate in Kids Take The Stage Productions?

Come to one of our open auditions - EVERYONE who auditions will be given a part!

4. How do I know what part I got?

Cast selection is made as soon after the audition as possible and is posted at the Kids Take The Stage Website.
