Note: Specific audition times are required. Send your picture and resume,
and we'll contact you. (Also, the following information applies to
adult performers.)
Please be prepared to sing two selections in styles appropriate to the shows. You may sing songs actually from the
shows, or other songs. Your choice. You may also bring your own accompanist,
although we will provide an excellent one. Your sheet music should
be in the appropriate key. No a capella singing or taped music, please.
All performers will be required to take a small movement audition for coordination,
and dancers will be asked to demonstrate considerable proficiency
in ballet, tap and jazz. Dance combinations will be taught by a choreographer,
and dance auditions will be in groups. Acrobatic tricks are also very
welcome, and please let us know if you play a musical instrument.
Compensation
Music Theatre of Wichita works with Actors’ Equity Association
under the University/Resident Theatres Association (URTA) contract. Basic
salary is $400 per week for the non-Equity performers, with additional
remuneration for principal and supporting roles, as cast. MTWichita does not
provide housing for non-AEA performers, but good housing is available at
a reasonable cost, and within biking or walking distance. There is no compensation
for children and teen performers.
Note: We always hope that our productions will reflect the cultural and racial diversity that we celebrate in our country. Performers from all backgrounds are encouraged to audition.
