Southeastern’s Department of Music and Performing Arts will be holding auditions for the musical “Ragtime” in June.
Although the campus may be returning to normal, the department has made changes to the auditioning process for the musical.
The auditions will last until June 16 and must be submitted via video. Students auditioning are asked to sing around 32 measures or 60 to 90 seconds of a song, showcasing their vocal abilities.
“They need to put their best foot forward. They’re only going to sing about a minute or 90 seconds of a song; they need to examine the song and figure out what 90 seconds are going to show off my voice the best. It doesn’t matter if they like the verse if the chorus is where all the business is happening,” said Charles Effler, the director of the Opera and Music Theatre Workshop and producer of “Ragtime.”
