Theatre

Orangewood Theatre features a rich variety of theatrical opportunities, including two musicals and one play every year as a part of our three upper school productions – one that involves students from both upper and lower schools. Students are encouraged to develop their talents in a Christ-centered environment that fosters spiritual growth alongside artistic development. 

During the school day, our students in 6th-12th grades have the opportunity to take both basic and advanced theatre classes. 

In our vibrant Junior and Senior Thespian troupes, students learn more about work ethic, professionalism, and how to work together as an ensemble.

And everything that you perform in word and in works, do in the name of our Lord and give thanks by Him to God the Father. 

- Col. 3:17

Top Tips to Prepare for Auditions

 

Read the Script

Oftentimes, you can find the script online to help prepare for your audition. Decide what role(s) you are interested in. At Orangewood, you will always be considered for all roles, but it is helpful for the director to know what role(s) you are invested in.

 

Practice Reading the "Sides"

"Sides" are the portions of the script we use for auditions. They will be printed out for you to use on audition day. Know what is happening  and make strong choices about how you think the character should be portrayed. Practice reading the sides out loud.

 

Prepare the Song

If you are auditioning for a musical, you will also find two versions of each song with the sides: one with vocals, and one karaoke version. Use the vocal version to learn the song and then rehearse singing with the karaoke track. Prepare the song for the role you are interested in.
