Excellence in Performing Arts Education
STAGE DOOR PRODUCTIONS
Our Stage Door Productions Program runs every year in Term 2 and 3 and offers students the opportunity to experience the full process of auditioning, rehearsing and performing a musical theatre production.
Our program offers two streams:
Stage Door Productions Onstage; onstage performance skills. Ages 8 - 17 years.
Stage Door Productions Backstage; Asic stagecraft- set design, lighting, costume and backstage crew. Ages 10 - 17 years.
Classes are held every Thursday from 5-7pm and are open to all performers. Some weeks the onstage and backstage streams will work together and other weeks they will work on separate tasks.

CASTING
Casting will take place during the first couple of weeks of Term 2. Part of our program will be teaching students how to audition. We want to emphasise the importance of the rehearsal process and the importance that all cast members play in a show - not just those with named roles. We will cast based on suitability for the role. All casting decisions will be final. We hope that parents can support us in teaching young people to respect casing decisions even if they experience disappointment.
REHEARSALS
Weekly rehearsals will be held on a Thursday night from 5-7pm at Stage Door Academy throughout term 2 and 3. A compulsory technical and dress-rehearsal will be held on Friday 3rd Oct 9-5 at Bentleigh Secondary College Auditorium. Students who do not attend this rehearsal will be unable to perform due to safety reasons. Please ensure you are free on this date and all performance dates before committing.
PERFORMANCE
Our production will be held at Bentleigh Secondary College's Theatre and there will be three performances.
Friday 3rd October, 7pm.
Saturday 4th October 2pm and 7pm.
