Audition Details for Chitty Chitty Bang Bang- Winter 2025

The audition form will be available in November.

Pre-Audition Practice Opportunity for Live Audition Accompaniment
Tuesday, December 9, 2025, 5:30-8:30pm by appointment
  • If you are auditioning with sheet music, you can use your audition form to sign-up for a five-minute practice slot with the pianist.
  • Auditioners who use the accompanist will be charged $10 to help cover the cost of the professional musician.
  • Using live accompaniment rather than a pre-recorded track is highly recommended unless you are a younger student or are new to musical theater.
  • See Music Notes or Sheet Music Direct for inexpensive sheet music. Music Notes even has an app that will play the song while it highlights the notes to help you learn.

Your Audition To-Do List!

  • Register for at least one CYT Dallas class- trimester or studio. (Note that the only time this doesn't apply is for adults, 19+, who are auditioning for a CCT show.)
  • Compare your personal calendar to the production calendar under the pdf menu, and make sure you can attend rehearsals and performances. 
  • [This does not apply when we are only doing one show in the session.] If you are ages 8-13, decide whether you will audition for the Youth Troupe Production, the Mainstage Production, or both. If you are auditioning for both, you will audition for each on their own night. It is a different artistic team watching for each show.
  • Choose your audition song (1 minute or 32 measures) and start to practice. (See the audition FAQ page for more info about your song.)
  • Choose an audition monologue from our provided selections and memorize it. (Selections will be available for each show in the pdf menu above when the audition form is live.)
  • Watch the dance audition videos and prepare to show your skill at the dance auditions.
  • On the night of auditions: arrive 10-15 minutes before your audition time and sign in.
  • Dance auditions will beheld on the Saturday following auditions as early as 8:30am. (Not all shows will have a dance audition.)
  • Callbacks for roles, by invitation only, will be held on the same day as the dance auditions.

When you commit to participate in a CYT Dallas show, you agree to pay a production fee of $175, to sell 20 tickets per student (or 25 tickets per family,) and contribute family volunteer hours to the production. We cannot produce the shows that we do without every cast member contributing in all three of these ways. [Adults 19+ in CCT will have a reduced production fee and reduced number of tickets required.]

Students (ages 8-18) will only be allowed to audition when these conditions are met:
  • Currently registered in an ongoing studio class and/or a current trimester class.
  • Returning Students must have paid-in-full all previous production fees and ticket sales and contributed parent volunteer hours. Returning families without volunteer histories will be asked to have an in-person meeting with staff to help them find and commit to volunteer opportunities before a student will be allowed to audition.
  • New students must have at least one parent registered in our volunteer system, including a completed background check and child safety training. 
    • To set up a volunteer account, you must have the CYT Dallas app. Once you open the app, select Volunteer > CYT Dallas Volunteers > Sign Up To Volunteer. You’ll then click "Create A New Account." The volunteer system links from the CYT Dallas app to a different volunteer site, so you need to create a unique volunteer account. (Only one parent is required to volunteer, but each individual who volunteers must have their own account. Spouses cannot share a login.) Fill out the information, and click the link to authorize your background check. Once you create an account, you will be directed to a screen that will say awaiting activation. After we run your background check, you will be emailed a link for a Protect My Ministry training video. Once you complete the video training, your volunteer account will be activated, and you’ll be able to see and sign up for shifts.
Each show has a production fee of $175. This no longer includes a show t-shirt. We have not raised our production fee since we started, however, our costs have risen in all departments. We strive to keep productions affordable to participants. There are no scholarships available for production fees, nor the ticket requirements listed above.
