All CPP auditions are a cold read, which simply means you'll be given a short scene from the script at the audition and a few minutes to look it over before reading it with others. There's nothing to memorize, and we're not looking for perfection. We're simply interested in seeing how you bring a character to life and work with fellow actors!
