Callback Info 2025

 

A dance call will be held on Tuesday, 10/14/25, for all who auditioned.

 

A dance call in theatre is a portion of an audition where potential cast members learn and perform a choreographed routine. It's a way for directors and choreographers to assess a performer's dance skills, ability to learn quickly, and overall stage presence. It often involves learning a combination, possibly in groups, followed by a "cut" where some dancers are asked to stay for further evaluation.

 

Callbacks for specific characters will be held on Wednesday and Thursday, 10/15/25 and 10/16/25, from 4:30-6 pm. 

​

Callbacks for Matilda, Miss Honey, and Trunchbull will be held on Wednesday, 10/15/25.

​

Callbacks for all other characters will be held on Thursday, 10/16/25.

​

The cast list will be posted on Friday, 10/17/25, by end of day. The list will be posted on the callboard in Mr. Tuck's Room and here on the website on the homepage.

​

In theatre, a callback is a second audition where a director invites actors back for another look, often with more material or to see them interact with other actors. It's a chance for the director to further evaluate actors, potentially narrow down the pool of candidates, and assess character chemistry. Callbacks don't guarantee a role, but they indicate that the director is seriously considering the actor for a part.
