Auditions for Café Samo, the student-led cabaret series showcasing our singers and their many talents, will be January 10, 11 & 12 after school (with limited lunchtime auditions spots).
Pop, rock, country, musical theatre, folk, and other styles and types of acts are welcome! Make us laugh, make us cry. We want you to be creative and have fun! Upbeat, fun performances are real crowd-pleasers. Collaborations and group acts utilizing multiple students are strongly encouraged. A very, very limited number of solo ballads will be selected.
Please keep performance length to under 3 minutes 30 seconds.- Lyrics should be school-appropriate, and will need to be submitted as a printed document at the time of your audition. No Exceptions.
- You must be a choir student to sing, but you may be accompanied by a non-choir student (and your accompaniment may be asked to sit in for other acts as needed).
- If using Ms. Kizler for accompaniment, your sheet music should be submitted by 1/9/2024
- Background tracks as accompaniment will only be allowed for the audition, however NOT for the performance.
Audition sign ups will be posted in Google Classroom HERE
Café Samo performances will be January 26 & 27 in the Humanities Center at Santa Monica High School at 7:30pm, 5:00pm & 7:30pm respectively. Rehearsal and sound check is a required part of performer participation, and will be after school January 25.
Ticket sales will begin online when audition results are posted (exact date and performer list TBA), and these shows often sell out.
This year's student directors for Café Samo are Brooke Aron and Hope Hamilton. We know these students will work hard and put on a fantastic show!
