Vocal 1, All: The Smartphone Hour
​Rich set a fire and he burned down the house
{ scream / yell / cry }
Rich set a fire and he burned down the house
It was so terribly gory
I got the whole bloody story
And yeah, I wasn’t quite there
But I know what happened, I swear

Vocal 2, Option A: A Guy That I'd Kinda Be Into


I don't always relate to other people my age,
Except when I'm on the stage.
There are so many changes that I'm going through...
And why am I telling this to you?
Guess there's a part of me that wants to

Vocal 2, Option B: Upgrade
Your life was so pitiful before
Now it's time to go all the way and more
You gotta get an upgrade (upgrade) upgrade
You gotta get an upgrade (upgrade) upgrade
Don't worry about the guilt you feel
Just take a breath and seal the deal
Damn
Gotta get an upgra-a-ade
You gotta get an upgra-a-ade

Vocal 3, Option A: The Squip Song
​Right now you're helpless, helpless
You are almost hopeless.
On the school social map you're just a blip!
But if you take my advice
and if you pay the listed price.
Well, then you go from sad, to interesting, to hip.
Yeah, your whole life will flip!
When you buy a squip!

Hey, yeah, a squip
Yeah, yeah, a squip
A-ah a squip

No longer a drip when you've got in your grip!
A squip
A squip
A squip

Vocal 3, Option B: Michael in The Bathroom
I'm just Michael who's a loner
So he must be a stoner
Rides a PT cruiser
God he's such a loser
Michael flying solo
Who you think that you know
Michael in the bathroom by himself
All by himself
All by himself
And all you know about me is my name
Awesome party
I'm so glad I came
More Than Survive Choreography
Learn choreo
* Make sure you're performing the choreo as clean as possible, while also showing your personality and ability to act and dance at the same time!


​Tips & helpful Hints:

  • Perform these songs full out and to the best of your ability! This is not just a singing and dancing audition, it's acting while you sing and dance! 
  • Make sure you are filming 4 separate videos, do not film one continuous clip. Please submit all content at once, do not make multiple submissions.
  • Make sure you slate at the beginning of each video. (say your name, height, and what you're performing)
  • None of the vocal options are gender specific, sing whatever you'd like.
  • There shouldn't be additional people in the videos or any background noise. Be sure to be in a well-lit area.
  • Watch the videos before you submit them.
  • Make sure your entire body can be seen in dance videos.
  • Make sure your entire face can be seen in singing videos. If you can, place the camera level with your face. 
  • The camera should be stationary in your videos.
  • Don't be discouraged by the dance moves or notes, go full out and give it your all!​
