Directors and Producers
After the auditioner leaves, the selection process begins. Considering factors like prior experience, volume, gesticulation use and speech quality along with more abstract values like "presence" and character "fit", the director and producers analyze and discuss the performance that they just heard.
Audition
The idea of auditioning--entering a room with a board of strangers and forming spontaneous emotions, songs, or witty monologues that have little to do with your real personality--may seem foreign to some; but for hundreds of Harvard students September brings the opportunity to do exactly this.
Harvard Callbacks
A cappella groups like the Harvard Callbacks attempt to loosen up their auditioners by asking them to tell a joke or a funny story before the audition begins.
