For auditions, you must be convincible playing a 7 year old blind, deaf

in. All audition material will be that of improvisation. Plan on throwing
a temper tantrum, a very big one, without making any vocal noise. You will
also be required to attempt to get out of a chair while being held down.
Other theatre improvisations will be asked also. Helen does make some
noises vocally during the show, mostly when angry, frustrated or frightened.
You may be asked to make those noises.
Rehearsals for just Helen will begin the first week of August. Due to the
demands of the rehearsal process, it is expected that those auditioning are
A/B students and maintain their GPA during the rehearsal period. Please
bring your most current report card to auditions. Your education is far
more important than this role.
Auditions for the remainder of the cast will be held August 14/15 and the
girl cast as Helen will be required to be at those auditions. Complete
rehearsals will start immediately and are tentatively planned for Sunday –
Thursday from 7:00 – 10:00 pm. Helen will be required to be at every
rehearsal. An adult will remain at the theatre until all children have been
picked up following nightly rehearsals. During the final two weeks, you can
expect to be at the theatre later than 10:00 pm.
