Mandatory Show Parent/Student Meetings:
In lieu of an in person parent meeting for the Spring session, we will be using a series of 8 short videos that cover all of the information you will need for auditions, rehearsals, and shows. These videos will include links for forms that you will need to fill out and submit. Please watch these videos with your student so they are also aware of the process!

PLEASE NOTE - While the checklist is correct, these dates are from the winter session!
8. Communication
Once you have watched all of the videos, you need to send an email to shows@cytsanantonio.org verifying you have completed the videos. Please include your name, your student’s name, and the song listed in the video that Bobby uses in his slate. (If you watched the videos, you will know!)
If you do not submit the required email that verifies you have watched the videos, your student will not be eligible to audition!
There will be 2 additional mandatory parent/guardian meetings during the session, one on the first night of rehearsal, April 16th, and one at the beginning of tech week.
Auditions:
