Cast Auditions

All are welcome to try out! You must attend this audition to be in the cast. All participants must be present, so be sure that your act partners are on stage with you. The acts that are chosen tend to be those that are best prepared, so give us your best shot!

Chorus Line Auditions
Saturday, December 9, 2023
12:30 p.m.
The Dance Studio at Smiley Building (E Third Avenue)

Get out those dancin’ shoes! You must attend this audition to be in the chorus line. If you are selected to dance, the second half will be taught same time and place later in December.

The details for Auditions…

Develop a concept or steal one from your favorite band, radio or TV show. Local humor is much appreciated by the crowd! Acts should never be more than 3 minutes, 2 ½ minutes are about right.

Maximum act size is four (4) people. If you need “extras,” they can be borrowed from another act.  Bring your music on a CD or pluggable device (USB/smartphone with cord) so they can be used during the audition on our sound system. We’ll have microphones set up in the theater.

Come in costume – at least the general idea, you can step it up if your act gets in the show. Practice what you will present – come prepared!

This is adult entertainment and acts are given maximum leeway on content. However, the Follies Production Crew does reserve the right to censor material deemed to be “too socially unacceptable.”

Almost 1,000 participants have joined the Follies cast and crew over the years. We don’t kid ourselves - this is a lot of work. However, it is also an incredible adventure with a group that loves to laugh, entertain and have some great fun in the winter!

Persistence pays! If at first you don’t succeed… you know the saying - just live it!
