Auditions- Summer 2026
Casting Process
Below you will find the audition sides and the tracks for your auditions. The tracks have two sections, one with vocal and one without. You will audition with the piano not the tracks. The music is exactly like the music on the track. We will sing through all the songs before we start the auditions.
You do not have to do a singing audition if you don’t want to but please know you will be cast in the ensemble and not in a lead part.
THE MOST IMPORTANT THING WE WANT YOU TO KNOW: We want you to tell us an honest story with your song. Remember all the skills we have taught you and connect to the material. If you are new to Jazz Hands, listen to the words and the music and show us, without pushing, an honest interpretation of the character and the story they are telling. Create a performance for your audition, by using your body and by moving around the room if you feel you want to. We encourage you to do more than just stand and sing. Create a character! Remember there are no wrong choices.
