AUDITIONS

The New Dawn Singers is a touring, song and dance group that performs many shows throughout the year in convention centers, amusement parks, theatres, schools, churches, retirement communities, and many other venues across the country. Our members are out of high school and/or of college age. We bring youth, smiles, talent, and excitement to audiences of all types with our upbeat, high energy show!

Our cast includes 5-8 performers on stage as well as tech staff that all work together to produce a professional entertainment show geared to please any crowd.

Members need not have professional training, just a "willing to learn" attitude and eagerness to work hard. Technicians must also be willing to learn new equipment and sound and lighting techniques.

Cast members travel together to the performances. Males and females are separated in different bedrooms for their stay at each destination.

Cast members will each be given different "set-up" jobs..such as costumes, sound, lighting, CD table, etc. to set up at each performance.

Rehearsals begin anywhere from one week to one month prior to the first show date.

Our Guidelines: Appearance: Hair is to be neat and taken care of. No visible tattoos or piercings except for the ears. If you already have tattoos, you will be responsible to cover them for each performance with the correct stage makeup. No earrings on any males. No facial hair on stage. In general, good grooming is required. Females wear hair extension/fall comb wigs.

Shows are professional and stage makeup is required for all members...male & female.
