Part 2: Audition and Rehearsal Readiness
A Continuation of Part 1

Pick Your Production

  • At the start of Part 2, families will select their student’s production path—either Annie Jr. or Aristocats Kids. This choice will determine their cast placement, rehearsal schedule, and final performance.

Part 2 Schedule

What to Expect

  • Based on the show or rehearsal schedule your family selects, students continue developing the skills learned in Part 1 while becoming familiar with the audition and rehearsal process. This phase is gently structured to help prepare students not only for their upcoming production, but also to build confidence and readiness for future auditions and theatre experiences beyond the School of Theatre.

Part 3: Rehearsal and Full Production
A Culmination of Parts 1 and 2

Part 3 Schedule

  • Students attend rehearsal two times per week, with new rehearsal times.

    • Students may not be called to every rehearsal. Casting will be based in part on availability and rehearsal commitment.

What to Expect

  • Students rehearse twice weekly in preparation for a fully staged production featuring professional costumes, sets, lighting, and direction. During rehearsals, students will memorize their lines, learn precise blocking (stage movements and positioning), and master choreography for songs and dance numbers. They will also practice integrating their acting, singing, and movement to deliver a polished, cohesive performance. This immersive process helps students build confidence, teamwork skills, and stage presence as they prepare to bring the show to life in front of a live audience.

Casting Note

  • Students cast in Annie Jr. will be placed into either Cast A or Cast B by the production team at Matthews Playhouse. Both casts rehearse on the same days but at different times, and all performances occur on the same weekend. While we take student availability into consideration, final cast placement is at the discretion of the directing team.
