Step 1: Register for a Virtual or In-Person Open Call Date.
Step 2: Complete Paperwork (see below).
Step 3: Have your ID and Paperwork ready during your audition.
Everyone participating in the Auditions, whether performing or not, will need to fill out the proper paperwork and bring a valid photo ID with them to their audition. If a contestant or supporter is under 18 and not coming with their parent or legal guardian, they will not be admitted without completing and bringing additional minor paperwork.
A confirmation email will be sent to you upon completing your audition registration, and a day prior to your audition you will be emailed the link to access the audition.
If you are auditioning as a solo performer, or with a group with 5 members or less...
The best way to fill out the release and sign it electronically on a desktop computer. The form is not compatible with all mobile devices. Sign in to your Performer Profile using your email and password and follow the link to the Electronic Personal Release Form.
If you are part of a group, you will still register under a single person. You can sign in and then share that log in with all the members to sign the Electronic Paperwork.
If you cannot all sign electronically, you can simply download and fill out the release form and bring it with you to the audition.
If you are auditioning as a group with 5+ performers.
Only one member of the group should register online. That person will be registering for the whole group and they will be the main contact for audition information.
Every member of the group will need to show a photo ID when they arrive. Everyone in your group needs to fill out the Personal Release and bring it to the audition. If anyone in your group (including supporters) is under the age of 18 and not coming with their parent or legal guardian they will need to fill out additional paperwork outlined in the MINOR section below. If you plan on coming to the auditions with more than 10 people in your act, we can help make sure you have all the paperwork you need to make your audition day go a lot smoother. Please fill out the Large Group Form and we will be in touch before your audition day to help you prepare.
If you have friends or family members coming to support you
You may bring friends and family members to support you. Just keep in mind they will not be allowed in the actual audition room (unless you are the parent or guardian of a minor who is auditioning).
- All supporters will need to show a photo ID.
- Supporters need to sign the Friends & Family Release Form and bring it to the audition.
If you or anyone in your group (including supporters) is under 18 and and not coming with their parent or legal guardian they will need to fill out this additional paperwork.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT MINORS
For anyone under 18 coming to the auditions.
1) All minors attending an audition must be accompanied by their parent or their legal guardian.
2) Both the minor and a parent or legal guardian must complete the Personal Release. To do this log into their Performer Profile and e-sign it, or download the Personal Release form, fill it out and have it with you at the audition.
3) Everyone under 18 joining the audition will be required to present a photo ID.
- Minor contestants and supporters may use a school ID or acceptable substitute (such as a passport, yearbook page that includes a printed name with a photo AND a birth certificate).
- If the minor is too young to have a photo ID, then the parent or guardian should present a photo ID & the child’s birth certificate that includes the parents name with the child’s name on the certificate.
If you are under 18 and our planning on attending the auditions without your parent or legal guardian, please select a different audition date when your parent or legal guardian can be present.
For minors auditioning without their parent.
If anyone under 18 wants to attend the audition WITHOUT their parent or legal guardian (such as a coach or friend), there are very strict rules which must be followed or they will not be allowed into the venue. 1) They must be under supervision of a third party (coach or friend) who is at least 21 years old. 2) The minor's parent must download and complete the Guardianship and Medical Authorization for Minors Form and get it NOTARIZED by a notary public (typically at banks, mailing stores, or search your local directory) and have the third-party guardian bring it with them on the day of the audition. Please note: The parent AND the designated third-party acting as guardian must be present to get this form notarized. 3) The minor's parent must designate the third-party acting as guardian page 3 of the Personal Release. That section must be signed by the parent AND the third-party acting as the guardian for the day.
For minors coming without a parent, who are coming to support a friend.
If a minor is coming as a supporter for anyone, and that minor's parent or legal guardian is unable to attend, here are very strict rules which must be followed or they will not be allowed into the venue. 1) They must be under supervision of a third party (coach or friend) who is at least 21 years old. 2) The minor's parent must download and complete the Guardianship and Medical Authorization for Minors Form and get it NOTARIZED by a notary public (typically at banks, mailing stores, or search your local directory) and have the third-party guardian bring it with them on the day of the audition. Please note: The parent AND the designated third-party acting as guardian must be present to get this form notarized. 3) The minor's parent must designate the third-party acting as guardian page 3 of the Friends & Family Release. That section must be signed by the parent AND the third-party acting as the guardian for the day.
