The Audition Process, explained by High School Musical gifs

Auditions. They’re something everyone who wants to act in a school production, a community theatre production, and even a professional production has to deal with. We get it: Going through the audition process can be time consuming and nerve wracking. So here’s the audition process, as explained by High School Musical gifs.

The show is announced, and you’re SO EXCITED.

When you find out when auditions will be, you immediately sign up or add it to your calendar.

You psych yourself up before it’s time to head to the theater for auditions…

…and you make sure you leave early so you’re not late!

When you arrive at auditions, the nerves hit.

But by the time you go through your warm-ups, you start to calm down.

You know you shine when you perform!

You’re up for one of the leads…it’s time for callbacks!

And after callbacks, you wait and wait and wait for the cast list to be posted…

…and when it goes up, you find out you got the role you wanted!

…or maybe you didn’t.

But that’s okay! Being involved in theatre is a great experience, no matter where you are on- or backstage!
