Description:

We're excited to announce auditions for this year's musical, Big Fish! Auditions will be held April 18th and 19th, from 6:30-9:30pm in the St. James Parish Center (820 N Arlington Hts Rd, Arlington Hts, IL 60004).

Show Dates: July 13th-16th, July 20th-23rd. All shows are at 7:30pm except for Sunday matinees at 2:00pm. We also will be hosting a benefit show on July 19th at 7pm. All actors are required. Rehearsals will be Sundays through Thursdays. You will not be required at every rehearsal.

What You Need to Know: We encourage everyone ages 8-90+ to audition. Our company has been proud to put on fun, family-friendly musicals since 1970. We try to double cast as many roles as possible and encourage people of all backgrounds to audition!

*No decisions have been made, but we are considering splitting the roles of Edward and Sandra*

The Process: Please bring a headshot, your own sheet music and be prepared to sing 16-32 memorized bars with piano accompaniment. Your song does not need to be from the show but choose something that shows your personality and range and showcases the best features of you! No monologue is needed. Bring comfy shoes and clothes you can move in for the dance portion. We'll teach you a quick dance combo.

Video Auditions: While we want to see all your smiling faces in person, we understand not all of you are able to attend in person. If you need to submit a video audition, please email us at producer@stjamestheatre.org and we'll send you a personal secure link.

Callbacks: Callbacks will be Saturday, April 22rd, starting at 10am by invitation only. Not everyone will be called back. Just because you're not called back does not mean you're not being cast or didn't get the part you wanted.

Casting: We will be posting the cast list on the St. James Theatre Facebook page on Sunday, April 23rd. Rehearsals will begin on May 1st.
