In order to prepare for my audition for 'Our House' the musical I am going to take various approaches. Such as general research about the production itself and personal development in terms of potentially going forward for a character that I necessarily haven't/would not have gone for before.
For example, I will/have watched the production of 'Our House' in order to understand the story line and structure of the piece. I will listen to the soundtrack on its own to single out certain songs I may want to consider to audition with. These will range from songs I am comfortable singing (ballads) to ones that I primarily don't tend to sing.
In order to show professionalism I will take a mature and focused approach to my audition making sure I give each aspect of my audition detailed attention so that the whole audition is equally confident and rehearsed.
Character Prep:
Sarah - In order to prepare for my audition for Sarah I will take inspiration from various other actresses performances in order to establish key factors and elements they all use. Possibly using them in my own interpretation. I will also possibly emphasise certain emotions/traits that may be subtle in other performances. For example, I would possibly exaggerate her love for Joe when he is in Prison and then when he comes out. I will also practice speaking in a slower more longing way.
Reecy/sarcastic friend (girl/boy) - In order to prepare for these roles I will listen attentively to the faster songs as they tend to have more involvement in them. I will also inhabit a lively, fluid characterisation in order to make an interesting/enjoyable character to portray. I feel that I would be able to bring an excitable vibrant personality to these characters if given the opportunity to play them. That would bring a breath of fresh air to the role and potentially the cast and narrative.
Set - Camden
