The Greenville Theatre is inviting young performers from the community to audition for two beloved stage productions: the classic musical The Wizard of Oz and the whimsical drama Big Fish. Auditions will take place on Monday, September 19, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the theatre’s main facility.
How to Register
All interested actors must register in advance. Registration can be completed online through the theatre’s website, where applicants can select either an in‑person audition slot or request instructions for a virtual audition. For those who prefer to submit a video audition, the theatre has provided an email address—[email protected]—to receive details on format, length, and submission deadlines.
What to Expect at Audition
Audition panels will be looking for youthful energy, vocal ability, and a willingness to collaborate. Participants should be prepared to perform a short monologue or song excerpt, depending on the role they are pursuing. The theatre’s artistic staff will provide feedback and guide each young actor through the next steps of the casting process.
Future Opportunities
In addition to the September auditions, the Greenville Theatre plans to hold youth auditions for two additional productions later in the season: the timeless novel adaptation To Kill a Mockingbird and the high‑energy musical Hairspray. Details for those auditions will be announced on the theatre’s website as they become available.
Why It Matters
These auditions represent more than just a chance to appear on stage; they offer local families a constructive, faith‑affirming activity that nurtures creativity, discipline, and community involvement. By providing both in‑person and virtual options, the theatre ensures that all interested youth—regardless of transportation or scheduling challenges—can participate.
