Auditions
Main-Stage Roles
Main-stage roles are cast well in advance of the performance dates. Mainstage auditions are by invitation only and will be scheduled on a case by case basis. In order to be considered for an invitation to a live audition, you need to send an audio/video sample, resume and head shot to us. Files can be sent via e-mail attachments to fernando@operaidaho.org, available on a website, or hard copies can be sent to our office.

Opera Idaho Resident Company
The Resident Company is the pool of local, Boise-area singers from which singers are chosen for choruses, comprimario and cover roles for our main-stage and other productions (all lead roles are cast in separate auditions), any solo work for special events and referral jobs.
You are asked to prepare at least one aria (opera/oratorio/operetta) or a musical theater selection, preferably memorized. You may sing as many as three selections, preferably with one selection in English. You will be sent a form in advance of the audition, which we’ll ask that you complete and bring to your audition.
If you or someone you know is interested in joining Opera Idaho’s Resident Company and performing in our productions, call 345-3531 x2 or email: fernando@operaidaho.org to reserve your audition slot.
