VIDEO AUDITIONS

​

All video auditions should follow these guidelines:
- Please slate your name, age, and what you will be singing.
- Please sing with the LYT audition track without vocals (accompaniment only), you can practice with the guide vocal track, but auditions are to be with the accompaniment only track. Do not sing acapella. 

- Video auditions are accepted as UNLISTED YOUTUBE links or GOOGLE DRIVE links ONLY.
-The YOUTUBE OR GOOGLE DRIVE Links need to be included in an email to lifelighttheatre@gmail.com with the SUBJECT: MAINSTAGE 2025 AUDITION VIDEO and the links pasted into the body of the email message. 
- GOOGLE DRIVE links must be shared with the following emails:   lifelighttheatre@gmail.com, laurenashleymccart@gmail.com, lindseysullivanglow@gmail.com   

Some helpful self-tape hints:
- Early submissions are greatly appreciated and give us more time to spend on your video than those we receive at the deadline.  PLEASE SEND ASAP
- You do not need fancy equipment. Using a phone camera is more than sufficient.
- Film in landscape.
- Make sure your phone is stationery and level. A tripod is helpful, but not necessary. It is easy to make a stand for your phone out of household items.
- Choose a quiet, well-lit area with minimal distractions.
- Natural light is great, but you can also enhance with lamps. We want to clearly see your facial features and expressions. 
- You do not need to do a full-body frame unless your audition piece requires it. In most cases, an upper body frame is best. 
- Practice before filming! Prepare for this audition as you would for an in-person audition. Practice your song for vocals and acting before ever setting up your equipment.

Happy Auditioning!
