Matilda Auditionees,
Thank you to everyone who auditioned for
Roald Dahl’s Matilda The Musical over this past weekend. We are so proud of the hard work, courage, and determination you all showed us through your auditions, and we appreciate the work and time you put into your songs, dances, and callbacks.
To those who were cast, congratulations! We can’t wait to start rehearsals with you. Your production fees are now active in your family account. Please pay these before the first rehearsal this Friday. More show and rehearsal info will be sent out this week, so keep an eye on your email.
Due to the large number of students who auditioned for
Matilda,
we were not able to cast everyone who auditioned. If you do not see your name on the cast list and were not cast in the show, we will be emailing you with helpful audition feedback in the coming weeks, which we encourage you to apply toward future auditions. Please wait two weeks to contact the artistic team with any audition-related questions so that we can focus on the front-end preparation needed to begin rehearsals.
