Summer Sing & Shine!
July 21-23 Ages 9-13 9:00-11:30 pm Plainfield Park District
Auditions 2025-26 season coming soon in April!
Acceptance into VIP is based on the ability to match pitch, interest, eagerness to learn, and dedication to the group. Auditions are required for our main group which meets on Tuesdays, for students in grades 6 - 12. Students in grade 6 can audition to join VIP or join VIP Jr without an audition.
An audition is friendly, low-pressure, and requires no preparation; it's like a mini voice lesson. No experience is necessary. The director is committed to teaching healthy vocal technique and ensuring that all children have an enjoyable musical experience (which includes the audition).
The goal of the audition is to reveal the child's musical potential; we will do pitch-matching activities and check the vocal range (how high and low you can sing). Auditions can be individual or in small groups and take 15 minutes.
Parents should join the child at the end of the audition to talk about the program. Registration forms will be emailed after the audition.
