For Adults: Fill out audition form found online at www.emeraldtheatre.org or this link: https://forms.gle/Uqp3VSRx8f8W3Mas5 Video record a 2 minute memorized monologue. Monologue from a play should be appropriate to the character you are interested in. For each monologue, begin your performance by slating your first and last name, pronouns, the play from which you are performing and then character you are performing.

Film at a medium shot—about waist/belly button up to a few inches above your head (but please allow yourself to move around/play within that frame). You need to be on your feet for the monologues.
