Does Your Child Love Singing? Encourage Them to Audition for a Musical!

Does Your Child Love Singing? Encourage Them to Audition for a Musical!

Allow your child to audition for a musical especially if they love singing. It helps them develop confidence and improve their vocals.

If your child loves singing, we encourage you to allow them to audition for a musical! Though most musical openings cater to adults and teens, a new opportunity recently opened up for children.

The Broadway Musical version of Frozen plans to make a few stops in some Asian and European countries. One of their destinations includes the Sands Theatre at Marina Bay Sands. Frozen The Musical commences on 5 February 2023.

If your kids loved the Frozen movies, we encourage parents to reserve tickets as soon as they can. We say this because the musical will only run for a limited time.

Meanwhile, if your kid enjoys singing, we urge you to allow them to audition as the younger versions of their favourite characters. Learn about the details we gathered and the benefits of letting your child join musical theatre below.

The Frozen Musical Audition Call for Kids

After the announcement of the Singapore date, the organisers of The Frozen The Musical released a link for the audition call. In it, they encouraged parents to sign up their kids for the auditions.

If you have a daughter who loves to sing, they can audition to be the younger versions of either Elsa or Anna. Unfortunately, gaining experience from vocal training won’t be enough to help them land the role.

Based on the website, those auditioning for the younger versions of Frozen The Musical‘s main characters need to meet certain requirements. Aside from a required age limit, interested auditionees also have to meet a height requirement.

Here are the audition call requirements that your daughter needs to meet before signing up.

  Age Height
Young Elsa 9 to 11 years old 140-142 cm
Young Anna 8 to 9 years old 125-127 cm

If you’re concerned about the age limit, the organisers allowed a few exceptions. As long as your daughter reaches the age requirement before the musical starts, they can still audition!

5 Reasons Why You Should Let Your Kids Join Musicals

If your kid doesn’t meet the requirements to audition for Frozen The Musical, don’t fret! You can still support their love for singing by letting them join musical theatre groups.

To properly hone their vocal skills, your kids need to start young. Because of this, musical theatre groups or classes work as great opportunities for them.

To ease your concerns about your kid auditioning for musicals, we have just the list for you! We compiled 5 reasons why you should go ahead and support your child their love for musical theatre.

To Enhance Your Child’s Vocals

This much is obvious but yes, musical theatre helps improve your child’s vocals. Moreover, this doesn’t just apply to enhancing their singing.

Musical theatre groups and classes aim to help their young members improve both their speaking and singing. Because of this, your child gets the chance to improve their voice and manner of speaking.

Forming Friendships With All Ages

If your child is shy but still loves to sing, we encourage you to sign them up for musical theatre. This helps them break out of their shell and form friendships with people of all ages.

Moreover, letting your child join musicals helps them meet new people without their parent’s help. This helps them expand their friend group and gain their own sense of independence.

Theatre Teaches Them Confidence

Much like acting groups or classes, musical theatre encourages your kids to be more confident. It also helps your kids realise that they’re gaining much-needed experience and training.

One of the reasons why our kids lack confidence is because they know about their age. By letting them join musical theatre at a young age, you let them experience great milestones outside of school. This then helps them gain confidence in their skills and hard work.

It Improves Their Memorisation Skills

By joining musical theatre, your child gets the chance to improve their memorisation and other cognitive skills. They can then apply this skill to enhance their performance in school.

They may not realise it at first but memorising tunes and lines can be useful in school. Because of this, we urge parents to teach their kids how they can relate to the skills they gained while joining musicals.

Musical Theatre Helps Them Communicate Better

Aside from confidence, letting your child join musicals helps them communicate better. During rehearsals, your children witness how fellow actors communicate their opinions to the production.

With that in mind, they see good examples of proper communication between people with authority. Knowing this also helps them learn to better communicate with their teachers and mentors.
