5. Adam

A popular jock at school and Ellie's crush. Adam is athletic, charismatic, and known for his good looks. He should have a strong singing voice and a natural stage presence.

6. Savannah

A mean-spirited cheerleader and Ellie's nemesis. Savannah is the epitome of a high school mean girl, with a sharp tongue and an air of superiority. Her character requires excellent comedic timing and charisma.

  2. Prepare Adequate Vocal Audition Pieces: Choose songs that showcase your vocal range and capture the essence of the character you're auditioning for. Make sure to practice and perfect your chosen pieces beforehand.
  3. Work on Your Acting Techniques: Find opportunities to enhance your acting skills, such as enrolling in acting classes or participating in local theater productions. The more experience you gain, the more confident you'll become during the audition process.
  4. Showcase Your Unique Interpretation: While it's important to know the character, don't be afraid to bring your own unique flair and interpretation to the role. Directors appreciate actors who can offer fresh perspectives while staying true to the character's essence.
