Audition Tips

We know that you’ll probably feel a little nervous on audition day so here are a few tips for you to think about before you come.

• It is normal to feel a bit nervous.
• Take some deep breaths before you go in to the audition room and try to relax and enjoy yourself.
• Don’t worry if you’ve never auditioned for anything like this before. Most of the young people who audition each year do so for the first time.
• All choristers and dancers must go though the audition process.
• The audition will take approximately 15 to 20 minutes

You don’t have to prepare anything.
There will be a group of other children auditioning with you, so you won’t be on your own.

Here’s what you can expect to happen in the audition.

The Audition

• There are a series of steps that you will asked to copy
• Some will be quite hard
• Some will be easier
• Some will be very easy
• Don’t worry if you find some steps too hard, the audition will help us to decide the best level and rehearsal group for you
• You might be asked to move into another line or to a different place during the audition. This is to ensure that everyone has a chance to be seen during the audition.

For Mum and Dad

• The audition will allow our staff to decide where a child is best placed to begin their experience with NIYPAA.
• Parents are welcome to watch the audition, but we ask for your understanding in regard to younger siblings who can often be a distraction in the audition process.
• As consec utive auditions are held on the day, it will not be possible to speak to the Auditioner, however a Manger is in attendance to assist with any questions.
