How To Audition

Auditions will take place every month.

Prepare a 1-minute performance showcasing your talent. Auditions are open to musicians (all instruments welcome!), rappers, singers, producers, poets, dancers, and stage technicians ages 6-21.* Check the calendar for audition dates.

 If you possess more than one talent that you would like to audition for, please either 

1. Perform both talents together (Ex: singing and playing guitar) or 

2. Split the 1-minute time frame to include both acts separately (Ex: dancing for 30 seconds and playing the keyboard or the remaining 30 seconds) 

Note: If you get a callback, you will be asked to perform the talents individually. (Ex: Sing a cappella)


What comes next? 

If selected, you will receive an invitation to our callbacks shortly after your audition.

Get ready!!! Call 718.450.3466 or email info [at] musicwam.org with questions.
