Does anyone have information about auditions on this tour (Sassymom?)? I am specifically looking for auditions in Detroit; the tour comes in January. I can't find any information, but I assume they will audition locally since they did in Hartford.

Hi momofwannabe- the auditions are held by the local venues for each city; they are responsible for finding the 12 local kids. I would recommend reaching out the theatre to see how they will handle auditions. We don't open til 2nd week of January in Detroit, so I would imagine that they won't be having auditions til December.

For what age range are they looking for kids for the local ensembles? Thanks.

They generally look for kids between 7-13ish.

Does anyone know how you would find out about local venus auditions? Also, does anyone know what the website is for the national tour?

The tour route/venues are listed on the official site. Good luck!

That website is not completely up-to-date on upcoming venues. You need to contact the theatre directly to find out how they will be auditioning the local kids.
