MACBETH
March 6-7, 2026
Set in Scotland’s chilly air, where “fair is foul, and foul is fair,”
Will great Macbeth rise or will he fail in Shakespeare’s spellbinding tale?
Reacting to three witches’ prophecy that he will become King and spurred on by his wife, Macbeth murders King Duncan to claim the Scottish throne. Plagued by guilt and paranoia, Macbeth goes on a murderous rampage, killing all who stand in his way, while Lady Macbeth descends into madness. Both die, and Duncan’s son is put on the throne.
Audition information
Everyone auditioning for Macbeth needs to participate in an Acting Audition and a Dance Audition. There are two slots: 5-7 p.m. and 6-8 p.m. You will need to prepare audition material (included in the Production Packet).
-
Dance and Singing Auditions: The optional Singing and the required Dance Auditions take place from 6-7 p.m. We need everyone to participate in the dance audition. You do NOT need to prepare anything; we will teach you a short sequence as a group. There are a few singing parts in the show. If you are interested in singing, please prepare the song included in the Production Packet. We encourage all girls to audition, as some of the main and ensemble parts require singing.
Audition Material: Please prepare the two monologues included in the Production Packet. For the Singing Audition, please prepare the song provided in the Production Packet.
​​
Production Packet: Please review the Production Packet and bring the signed page 8 to auditions.

Please list all your conflicts, directly on this digital sheet.
It is crucial actors and crew attend rehearsals; if you miss a rehearsal for a reason other than an emergency you may be dismissed from the show. Please look over the schedule carefully before you commit. On the schedule, list ALL conflicts you have for each rehearsal–those which can’t possibly be helped (Example: Nov. 16: No Lucy (piano) FLEX). Please proactively check ALL sports, extracurricular, work and social calendars and coaches and teachers, etc. Please make a note if a conflict is flexible.
Once cast, we’ll give more details about when each character is required at rehearsal. Some characters will not be required at every rehearsal; we will let you know as soon as possible any changes to the detailed schedule.

COSTUMES, MAKEUP & HAIR
Costumes will be provided for each character. Actors may need to provide their own footwear if it is a style they already own or can borrow.
Stage makeup is required for every actor. Bright lights and distance blur facial features, and stage makeup defines them. We will coach actors on proper techniques, but each actor is responsible for their own makeup application.
​
Hairstyles. We ask the cast to NOT cut/change their hair between their audition and the show performances, before consulting with the directors. With a period production, hairstyles are very important in creating the proper ambiance. We want everyone to look and feel attractive and confident. We will teach, coach, and provide materials to learn about the period-appropriate hairstyles. Actors are responsible for doing their own hair.
production fee
The actors' production fee is $100, crew fees are $50, and singers/drummer (who do not also have an acting part) are $50. This is due November 14, before the First Read-Through. We want everyone who desires to audition to be able to participate. If the show production fee presents a hardship, please let us know.
ticket prices
FREE! The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has wonderfully lent their facilities for our production, and they don’t allow ticket or concession sales.
parent responsiblities
We are thrilled to partner with you and your child in bringing this wonderful Shakespearean tragedy to the stage and our community. We all know productions like this require huge effort, and we could not do it without parents’ support. Each family will be required to have at least one parent (or other adult 18 or over) on a committee. Please see the Macbeth Committees page on the Parent Portal and fill out the six questions on your child’s audition form.
