Les Miserables Auditions

Auditions for the Olean Theatre Workshop production of Les Miserables will be June 11th and 12th at the Olean High School, 6:00-7:30 for ladies and 7:30-9:00 for males, please enter on the fourth street side. All children’s roles are cast. We are looking for men and women who are out of high school or who are graduating this year. Callbacks, if needed, will be June 14th at 6:00 pm.

We are seeking strong singers/actors. Prepare and memorize a song in the style of the show which best shows off your voice, range, and personality. Prepare 16-32 bars from a powerhouse ballad or a song from Les Miserables that really showcases your voice and vocal range. If you are singing from Les Miserables, you do not have to bring sheet music, but for any other show sheet music is preferred, an accompanist will be provided.

“Les Mis is completely sung-through, so there will be no line readings at the auditions, just singing and acting while singing. We are looking for persons who can tell a story through song and who can become the character they are portraying.”
