“So I thought ‘why not direction’,” she said.
For the audition, the director said she would ideally want 18 actors in total. However, based on the quality and number of auditions, actors might be asked to play double roles.
One of the key criteria to get selected for the musical was having a strong vocal ability – at least for the four key characters and some supporting roles.
Siata said there would be two separate auditions.
Friday auditions are for the ensemble group or support characters; locals who are interested in singing and dancing should come for the 7pm auditions, while those who want to take up dancing should attend the auditions at 7.30pm.
Saturday auditions are for individuals who either want to play the key roles or other supporting-actor roles.
“You should be prepared to sing a song of your choice, a rock’n’ roll, doo wop or pop song in the style of the show, which best displays your vocal ability,” she said.
Video submissions are also acceptable for those who can’t make the audition weekend.
Jersey Boys is a winner of Best Musical at both the Tony Awards and Olivier Awards.
