What to bring to your audition/interview
The audition and interview gives you the opportunity to introduce yourself rather than demonstrate skills. We want to know who you are; not just how well you can read, act or sing.
Sample audition pieces and/or other creative materials
- VCE monologues can not be used for presentation
- The piece should be no longer than two minutes
- There are no set monologues – it's your choice
- We are interested in hearing/seeing whatever you want to present
- Other creative materials such as designs and/or scripts may be submitted
More details about what to bring will be provided when we send out the audition schedule letters.
