Auditions Open For 'A Very Merry Guild Christmas'

RACINE, WI -- Auditions for the Racine Theatre Guild’s second Signature Spotlight concert of the season, “A Very Merry Guild Christmas,” will be held on Monday, Oct. 22 from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.

The Signature Spotlight Concert Series is a trio of musical revue concerts featuring volunteer musicians and singers, plus school choral groups from the Racine area. With varying themes and song styles, each performance appeals to a wide variety of signers and audience members. A Spotlight Star, a talented student in high school, will also be featured during each concert.

Spotlight Star auditions will be held from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. are open to any incoming freshman through senior attending high school in our area. Selected soloist auditions, open to anyone 18 and older, will follow from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Limited rehearsals will require strong singers to learn music on their own with only a few coaching sessions.

Those interested in auditioning must sign up for a 30-minute time slot and are instructed to bring sheet music in order to sing between 30 seconds and one minute of a prepared song in the concert’s style. An accompanist will be provided and tape recordings or unaccompanied singing are not permitted.

Register for a time slot by calling the Racine Theatre Guild at (262) 633-4218 and visit www.racinetheatre.org for more information.
