Audition Tips
Personality
Not only are we looking for exceptionally talented performers with great technique, but we are also looking for your personality. So don’t forget to smile and bring a little taste of sunshine with you, as it makes all the difference to see how you would engage with our guests.
Appearance
While all roles can differ, one thing that is crucial is how you present yourself. Dancers should wear clothing that shows your personality, but also that gives a good indication of your body shape. All performers must come well groomed and be prepared for a long day, so a change of clothes may be useful after a hard workout. For female performers, look your best with your hair done and strong day make-up.
Audition Schedule & Callbacks
Audition times can vary, but expect to be with us on the day for up to 8 hours, should you progress through the various rounds. You also must be prepared to receive a callback or a request for further information up to 48 hours after the open call audition, so try and keep the period around the audition free.
Face Characters
We are looking for DC characters out there. That said, it is not a requirement to come to the audition dressed as a character. What we are looking at is the personality and of course physical look and dimensions that could make you our Hero!
Musicians
Drummers be prepared to bring percussive instruments, either handheld drums, or buckets, as well as drumsticks. We will be looking for timing, rhythm and of course flair.
Costume Character Performers
Be prepared for a long day, as you will be required to perform a basic dance combination that will be taught to you at the audition, which may lead to you bringing one of our characters to life on the day!
Also be prepared that part of the role requires you to cold read a short script or poem, to see how you would follow direction and engage with our guests.
Language
It is crucial ALL Performers have at least a basic understanding of English, both verbal, written and understanding, so they can effectively communicate in our team. All Face Characters will be asked to perform scripted dialogue in English and MUST portray the character with a neutral American accent in most cases.
Process
Be prepared to wait! The audition process can take some time to be completed as we finish the global tour. If you are selected, it may be some time till you receive a confirmation on a contract, so sit tight, but feel free to follow-up at casting@farahexperiences.com if you have any questions.
During the selection process, you will be required to fill out numerous forms so BRING A PEN and be prepared to have your measurements taken.
Am I right for the Role?
There is only one way to know and that is to attend our open call auditions. Our only limitations can be height, which is mentioned in the audition call and Face Character auditionees must fit with the iconic “Look” of our Heroes.
