Scholarship Audition Information

Regardless of intended major or minor, talented students are encouraged to participate in the theatre program and audition for performance scholarships, which begin at $1,000 and may go up to full tuition.

The Theatre Department holds acting auditions and design/technical theatre interviews until the first week of March. For an acting audition, you would need to prepare two contrasting monologues not to exceed two minutes for each selection. For a design/technical theatre interview, you should bring either a portfolio of your work or a record of your theatre experience. These could include sketches, drawings, photos and programs. In addition, include two letters of recommendation from people familiar with your skill and experience.

In order to audition, dancers must be accepted to Alma College. To complete an application for admission, please visit http://www.alma.edu/admissions/apply

Student Profile

Natividad Salgado
Graduation: 2012
Major: Theatre and Dance

Michigan’s fall and winter weather might annoy some, but it brought Natividad Salgado to Alma from Miami. That, and the chance to study theatre.

“In the Theatre Program at Alma I have the opportunity to try all different aspects of theatre,” the junior says. “It’s very flexible — if you want to act and take a lighting design class, you are able to.”
