Hard Boiled: A Nursery Crime
Here is how to audition.
A limited number of students can sign up to be a part of the show. Fill out the audition form below. If you get a spot, you will be notified by Thursday. If you get a spot, casting is guaranteed! The audition day is to figure out what role you will get. Only students who ARE NOT in the cast for “Rudolph” are able to audition.

On the day of your audition:
- Arrive at the Theatre of Western Springs and enter through the Cattell Theatre door. A parent/guardian must come with you to check in and confirm the details on your Audition Form.
- Make sure you wear comfortable clothes and shoes to move in.
- Students will audition together in a group setting. They will read scenes from the script together and play some theatre games to help the director cast the show.
After auditions:
- The Cast List will be revealed at our first rehearsal on Wednesday, October 1.
- All students who attend the audition day will be cast in the show.
- Parents are not required to crew, but as volunteer needs arise throughout the semester, we may reach out for help.
- Being cast in Hard Boiled does not count as part of the Crew Clock for our Mainstage shows.
