- Actors must register for an audition time to be considered for a role. Bring completed audition forms and non-returnable head shot marked with name and age to audition. Audition materials and forms will be emailed to those registered one week prior to auditions.
- This season’s production, Disney’s High School Musical Jr., brings Disney Channel’s smash hit movie musical to life on stage. Troy, Gabriella and the students of East High must deal with issues of love, friends and family while balancing their classes and extracurricular activities. The show’s infectious, danceable songs are sure to engage our Glen Ellyn Theatre Company performers and audiences alike. (Music Theatre International).
