Audience Guidance - Acting

Candidates should prepare either:

• One modern / contemporary speech (written after 1956) and one speech from the Elizabethan / Jacobean period

or

• Two contrasting modern / contemporary speeches (written after 1956)

There is no specific advantage in choosing one option over the other, it is up to the individual candidate.


Audience Guidance - Musical Theatre

Candidates should prepare:

1. Audition Song
You will need to prepare one song from the musical theatre repertoire.
We prefer that the song is accompanied using a pre-recorded accompaniment. However, if this is not possible the song can be unaccompanied. Candidates should not perform
their own material.


2. Audition Speech

Candidates should prepare either:

• One modern/contemporary speech (written after 1956)

or

• One speech from the Elizabethan / Jacobean period

There is no specific advantage in choosing one option over the other, it is up to the individual candidate. The speech should be taken from a published play and must last no longer than two minutes.
