Before the day of your audition:
- Prepare any music, writing,
monologue or artwork that is required for your audition.
- Read through the "Audition
Requirements - Elementary/Middle School" or "Audition
Requirements - High School" for your arts area to make sure you know what they are
going to ask you to do!
- Read over the "Scoring
Guide" for your arts area to make sure you understand how your audition
is going to be scored.
- Practice what you plan to do at your
audition in front of as many people as you can. The more
times you practice your audition, the less nervous you will be at the
audition!!
On the day of your audition:
- Please bring any prepared materials
with you as instructed in the audition letter. VERY IMPORTANT!!!!
- Arrive at least 10-15 minutes before
your audition so that you can check in with Mrs. Pleasant.
- Watch the clock in the waiting area
to make sure that you are at the check-in table at the scheduled time of
your audition.
- Make sure you take a bathroom break
before your audition!
During your audition:
- An audition committee will score
your audition. There will be at least one SCAPA arts teacher, one
Fayette County arts teacher and one arts professional from our community in
the room with you.
- You will be asked to do several
things during your audition. Be sure to ask questions if you do not
understand what is being asked of you.
- Have fun and do your best!
After your audition is over:
- Go home, go shopping, go out to eat,
take a nap...relax!! It is over and you have done your very best!
- Audition results will be mailed to
your house sometime after the middle of January. At that time you will
know whether or not you have been offered a placement to SCAPA.
- If you are offered a placement to
SCAPA, then you will be hearing from Mrs. Pleasant and the Gifted/Talented
office over the next several months regarding additional paperwork and
registration materials as needed.
- If you are not offered a placement
to SCAPA, don't give up! We occasionally have more openings happen
over the summer and we may be giving you a call. If not, please keep
enjoying your arts area and audition again next year.
