On the first day back next term during Extras, Year 7s are invited to come along and audition for the play of ‘The Silver Sword’. Those who showed an interest have already taken a copy of the script home with them to read over the holidays – please look after this and remember to bring it back! The challenge for the audition is to select a short section (lasting under 1-2 mins) that interests you to prepare as an audition piece. It could be that it is the role you would like to be considered for or just an extract that you think shows your acting talents off in the best way. If you select an extract of dialogue with more than one role, you can either team up with a friend to audition together or we will read in any other text for you. Since better acting takes place without scripts in hand, I would advise you to try and learn the extract off by heart although this is not compulsory.
