AUDITION CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS AND SIDES:
Please note- you only need to prepare 1 side if you are auditioning for one of the main speaking roles. You do not need to memorize the side, just know it well and give us fun character work. If you want to be a small role or ensemble you do not need to prepare a side- we will teach you a short scene and have you do that instead.

What our community is saying about us…

CKP nurtures each individual child

After seeing the CATE Awards show, the word that comes to mind, that should always be associated with CKP is “Nurture.”   CKP nurtures each individual child, no matter what level they are.  What a fantastic community this creates. What a wonderful place for children to learn and grow.
