I have called and left a name and phone number twice over the past three days, but I still haven't been called back. Are there still audition slots available?
Hi! We had a big weekend with THE PRODUCERS, so just wanted to let you know that the Performing Arts staff are checking the hotline this morning and returning calls. There are certainly audition slots still available. Thanks for your interest!
