Auditions

Auditions are events or processes through which performers—such as actors, musicians, dancers, or other entertainers—are evaluated for a role, position, or performance opportunity. During an audition, individuals typically showcase their skills, talents, and suitability for a specific project, often in front of directors, producers, or casting agents. Auditions can take various forms, including cold readings (for actors), prepared pieces, improvisation, or showcases of specific abilities related to the role. They are a critical part of the casting process in theater, film, television, and live performances, allowing decision-makers to assess the potential of candidates for creative works.
