About This Activity
Description
We're sorry, but this activity is over. The last meeting was Wednesday, January 22, 2025.
- 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 2 Jr., brings Disney Channel’s smash hit movie musical sequel to life on stage. The gang is back for an action-packed summer extravaganza as Troy, Gabriella and the rest of the Wildcats finish junior year and blast onto the summer scene. The show’s infectious, danceable songs are sure to engage our Glen Ellyn Theatre Company performers and audiences alike. (Music Theatre International).
- Not an actor, but still want to participate? Volunteers are needed to help build sets, create costumes, and more. If you are interested, email aaubie@gepark.org.
- Auditions: November 20 and November 22 at Main Street Recreation Center. Registration is required and can be completed online at gepark.org/register (type “High School Musical” into the Activity Search Bar). There is no fee to audition.
- Casting & Participation Fee: All who are cast after auditions must pay a participation fee ($350 for residents, $400 for nonresidents) prior to the first rehearsal. Fee includes a t-shirt and cast party after the show. Costumes will need to be provided by participants closer to the performances.
- Rehearsals: January 27 to April 16 at Main Street Recreation Center from 5:30-8pm on Mondays and Wednesdays. Additional dance calls will take place on 2-3 Saturdays during the production process and will be communicated well in advance. A call sheet will be sent out weekly. Tech week will take place from April 21-23 from 5-8pm at the theatre and will require all actors. A meeting for adults/caregivers and the cast will be scheduled after rehearsals begin.
