Audition

An audition is a process in which performers, such as actors, musicians, or dancers, present their skills to assess their suitability for a role, performance, or opportunity. Typically, auditions are conducted in front of directors, producers, or casting agents who evaluate the talent based on various criteria, such as skill level, ability to portray a character, and overall presence. Auditions can take multiple forms, including open calls, where anyone can participate, or closed calls, where specific individuals are invited to audition. The outcome of an audition often determines whether an individual is selected for a performance, project, or role in theatrical productions, films, television, or music ensembles. Auditions can also include elements like readings from scripts, musical performances, or dance routines, allowing the performer to showcase their versatility and range.
