Company: Alice By Heart Auditions

June 30, 2025

Sign up now to audition for Wharton Company!

January 6, 2026 6-9pm

January 7, 2026 6-9pm

 $25 (fee to be applied to cost of tuition upon enrollment)

 Detailed audition materials will be provided to auditioning students in December.

 AUDITION INFORMATION

Each audition block will last one hour, split between individual vocals and group acting and dance auditions.

You will also learn a short dance combination that will be taught at the audition.

 “In the rubble of the London Blitz of World War II, Alice Spencer’s budding teen life is turned upside down, and she and her dear friend Alfred are forced to take shelter in an underground tube station. When the ailing Alfred is quarantined, Alice encourages him to escape with her into their cherished book and journey down the rabbit hole to Wonderland.

 As they travel through the tale, Alice by Heart explores the poignancy of first love, coming to terms with loss, and finding the courage to move forward. This world premiere musical encourages us all to celebrate the transformational power of the imagination, even in the harshest of times.”

*Prelude Flutes will not run during the 2025–2026 season. We do, however, plan to bring both programs back for the 2026–2027 season and look forward to welcoming students at that time.*

Nurturing and educational, Prelude Flutes offers a first flute ensemble experience for students. In an ensemble setting, students will work on honing the fundamentals of good ensemble playing including intonation, blend, balance, and articulation. Prelude Flutes rehearses for 75 minutes each week and performs twice a year, in addition to participating in the NJYS Playathon concert.
