Encore Presents: Auditions for Disney’s The Lion King Jr

Dear Encore Families and Young Artists,

Encore Performing Arts is proud to announce auditions for our next major youth production: Disney’s The Lion King Jr., featuring performers ages 13–18.

Step onto the African savanna and into one of Disney’s most powerful and visually stunning stories. The Lion King is a celebration of growth, responsibility, community, and finding your place in the circle of life. This production challenges young artists to grow as singers, dancers, actors, and storytellers while working together as a true ensemble.

AUDITION PREPARATION

  • 16 bars of a song that shows off your voice

  • A printed headshot and resume (if available - no worries if this is your first audition!)

  • Clothes and shoes suitable for a movement-based dance call

  • A complete list of all conflicts for the rehearsal period (dates to be announced)

The pride is gathering.

If you’re ready to jump into an exciting story full of music, movement, and imagination, we invite you to audition!
