VIDEO AUDITION NOTICE: Munschables – The 2023 Charlottetown Festival

 

The 2023 Charlottetown Festival is currently accepting video auditions for its 2023 Young Company production of Munschables. This production will feature exclusively local, non-Equity artists between the ages of 16 and 30. Please note you must be Island-based and eligible to work in Canada to be considered. If you auditioned for Munschables in December in person or via video, you do not need to submit again – you are still being considered.

SUBMISSION DEADLINE: Videos must be submitted by 12 p.m. NOON on Tuesday, January 17.

Please submit headshot and resume, as well as the 4-part video audition, to Rosie Shaw: [email protected].

Please send the following four video components for your audition:

1. Introduction (tell us a bit about who you are – highlight your favourite performing experiences so far, special talents, or why you’re interested in being part of the Young Company)
2. Song of your choice – show off your vocal skills (2-minute cut)
3. Comedic monologue of your choice (no longer than 2 minutes)
4. Dance (please see tutorial)

You can include all segments in one video or submit as four separate files/links.

All file names (including download files accessed via links) must contain artist’s first and last name, and ideally a key word to indicate its content (i.e., “Rosie Shaw Headshot.pdf / “Rosie Shaw Monologue.mp4”).
