Auditions for Missoula Childrens Theater Princess and the Pea
Posted by: | Comments
These productions are just fabulous, my daughters acted in them from age 3 up. They are very intense and remember that often over 100 kids show up to audition for 30 parts. The staff is wonderful in trying to make everyone feel like they succeeded but there are still lots of tears so as a parent be ready for that. The secret to getting into the productions is to show the directors that you can pay CLOSE attention and do EXACTLY what they tell you to do when you get called to talk or sing or dance. If your child does make it it’s an amazing experience for you both.
