How to audition
Who can audition:
Spokane Children's Theatre casts productions with actors of all ages. We have cast as young as 5 and have many grandparents in our casts!
(regardless of age, actors must have the ability to follow artistic team directions and be able to focus for rehearsals)
What to expect:
At Spokane Children's Theatre we try to have a relaxed environment for auditions.
What to Prepare:
For musicals we need you to prepare a 1 minute song from a musical. You need to bring a device that can play an MP3 instrumental track of the song you are singing. There will also be a time where you are asked to learn a short choreography for dance. Do not perform a song from the musical you are auditioning for.
For non musical please prepare a 1 minute monologue.
What to wear:
Shoes and clothes you can dance in! If you have long hair, please have it pulled back.


Consent Forward Artists
At Spokane Children's Theatre we strive to make a respectful and safe environment. A Consent Forward Workshop is designed to create a safe, respectful, and empowering environment by teaching performers the importance of personal boundaries, clear communication, and mutual respect. It helps our community understand that they have the right to say no, especially in situations involving physical or emotional interaction on stage, and equips them with the tools to advocate for themselves while collaborating with others. By fostering a culture of consent, these workshops not only support the emotional well-being of young actors but also align with best practices in youth safety and ethical theatre-making.
​
Every cast will have a mandatory consent forward workshop scheduled into their rehearsals.

CAST OF CHARTACTERS
Spongebob Squarepants: He is optimistic, innocent, and boyish; energetic and sometimes hyperactive. This actor should have the ability to move well and be an extremely physical actor. Additionally: Must be naturally funny and have great comedic skills and precision.
​
Patrick Star: Well-intention but lacking common sense or skills;
kind and somewhat clueless, an innocent; a big softie, who can also be prone to sudden child-like fits of rage or frustration.
​
Squidward Q. Tentacle: Grumpy, cynical, dry, shorttempered, generally negative but lovable!
Sandy Cheeks): A brainy and athletic Texan squirrel who came to Bikini Bottom for a research project. She acts as SpongeBob’s most trusted ally on their quest to stop the volcano from erupting, using her vast amount of scientific knowledge and brilliant inventions to aid the mission.
​
Sheldon Plankton: His personality outweighs his size- slick, scheming, nefarious; has the ability to charm; determined, he will do anything to get ahead in life; very greedy, but his heart is still open enough to rekindle a romance with his wife.
​
Karen the Computer: Glamorous, a robotic housewife of Plankton. She’s been there for Plankton’s every scheme and plot and has become jaded – she’s been there and done that.
​
Eugene Crabs: The greedy owner of the Krusty Krab, and employer of SpongeBob and Squidward. While everyone is off panicking about Bikini Bottom’s imminent doom, he decides to strike the iron while it’s hot and puts on a huge “apocalypse sale” at his restaurant, exploiting the fear of his fellow fish to make him even richer.
​
Pearl Krabs: Mr. Krabs’ bratty teenage daughter. She is obsessed with the rock band “The Electric Skates” and just wants her father to understand her. She has a big voice and an even bigger personality.
​
French Narrator: The French pirate who narrates the play.
​
The Electric Skates: The three members of the rock band the Electric Skates are larger than life rock stars. These actors should have a tough, punk-rock attitude.
​
Sardine Devotees: These 5 are the leaders of the school of Sardines. They lead the group of sardines to follow Patrick as their guru.
​
Mayor of Bikini Bottom: The mayor tries to solve the volcano crisis with big words and speeches, but not much action. They are more worried about getting re-elected than actually helping the town.
​
Perch Perkins: The Bikini Bottom action news reporter.
​
Old Man Jenkins: The oldest Boomer in all of Bikini Bottom.
​
Larry the Lobster: A body builder, obsessed with his looks and building muscle. He is ALWAYS working out.
​
Mrs. Puff: The town driving instructor. She is sassy, sarcastic, and bitter. The glass is always half-empty.
​
Ensemble: The ensemble will fill out the world of Bikini Bottom as sea creatures, Town fish, sardines, the chorus of sponges, and an angry mob!
​
​
Physical Touch
Most characters will have moments of high fives, touching of hands, and hugging.
