Seventeen-year-old Evan Hansen has felt invisible his entire life. But when a tragedy shocks his community and thrusts him into the center of a rapidly evolving controversy, Evan is given the opportunity of a lifetime: the chance to be somebody else. As his web of well-intentioned lies begins to unravel, though, Evan is forced to confront the fact that the price of belonging may be far steeper than he bargained for.
What to Expect:
-
​Auditions will be at 161 Davis Road on Saturday, September 5th from 2:00-5:00pm
-
Auditionees will be expected to stay for the entire audition time
-
Parents/Guardians will need to come inside to fill out paper work before auditions can begin, but are free to leave once all filled out
-
There will be a $75 deposit due for your student to receive their script after their audition. This deposit must be given to Grace & Lyrica and can be done by cash, card, or a check made out to Shining Stars LLC
-
We will give everyone a chance to perform their character song(s) before moving onto scene selections for each character
-
Depending on how many people show up and how much material people want to audition with, we may end auditions earlier than scheduled!
To Prepare:
​Each auditionee needs to prepare at least one character song from this list:
-
Evan Hansen: "For Forever"
-
Heidi Hansen: "Anybody Have a Map?"
-
Zoe Murphy: "Requiem"
-
Cynthia Murphy: "Anybody Have a Map?"
-
Connor Murphy: "Disappear"

Any person of any gender identity or presentation can audition for any of these characters as well as prepare any of these songs to best showcase their abilities​
-
**People of all identities (racial, ethnic, gender, etc.) are more than welcome to audition for any role and will be considered with the same level of fairness. We're more focused on showcasing the talent of our performers and not casting to any preconceived expectation of any characters.
Specific lyrics and rehearsing tracks can be found in our audition folder linked above! We have specific cuts of each song that we would like to hear everyone perform, so please only prepare what is asked of you :)
​
Not every auditionee will be asked to join us at callbacks, but everyone should look over callback expectations in our "Audition Information" document in our rehearsal folder and be familiar with all selections
