Inspiration Stage has enjoyed considerable success at past Junior Theater Festivals, with opportunities to showcase New Works (Children of Eden JR, Disney’s Frozen JR) and receive the highest award of the festival, “Outstanding Performance” (companies of Disney’s Lion King JR, James and the Giant Peach JR, Annie JR, and Once on this Island JR). In addition, a number of our actors have been awarded for excellent individual performances and had opportunities to travel to New York City for iTheatrics workshops and Choreography DVD filming after appearing at the festival.

Bring comfortable clothing and shoes appropriate for dance for choreography audition.
What to expect: At auditions, you will have the opportunity to indicate which company/ies you are auditioning for. You may audition for JTF Atlanta or West only, or audition to be part of both companies. Students are encouraged to be available for casting in both companies.
You will be handed a JTF Code of Conduct and JTF Financial Agreement to sign in addition to your audition form. Please bring a headshot (or recent photo) and resume (if you have one) to submit with your audition form. Each of these will be posted to this page prior to auditions so you can complete ahead of time.
We will select and announce the specific shows prior to callbacks. The makeup and turnout of our JTF Company Auditions will help us determine which shows to select, so it is very important that you attend! If you have any conflict attending on March 23, please contact mandy@inspirationstage.com to arrange an alternate audition.
If you are planning to audition, please attend our JTF Information Session on March 6, 6pm-8pm.
