Audio Theater Winds strives to keep tuition as low as possible. At this time, Audio Theater Winds does not offer scholarships. Payment due dates are scheduled throughout the season for those who cannot pay in one lump sum. Dismissal from the ensemble, is likely, for members who are not current with the payment schedule.

Preparation! Get the material early and practice! One of the key traits we look for is confidence. You can't be confident if you don't know your material! The audition process will also include visual elements. We are looking for performers who can exhibit a high level of musical proficiency while moving. Start moving NOW! ALL performers should exhibit a high degree of flexibility. Adaptability is a huge element of performance.

Audio Theater Winds works hand in hand with community partners to provide housing during the season for its members.

Preemptively: participants should always be prepared to handle alternate housing, should local locations fall through - due to the various things that arise over the winter months (conflicts/weather/etc). This is normal for our activity.

NOTE: For open audition weekends, if necessary, you will need to make your own housing arrangements.

After auditions, there are rehearsals every weekend for the duration of the season (November - April).

PLEASE NOTE: This is subject to change depending on changes in practice venues, additional performances, etc. But we will do our best to keep the
schedule page up to date and accurate.
