Signature Theatre

Are you the next Broadway or pop sensation? The Tony Award®-winning Signature Theatre in Arlington, VA is launching the first ‘Signature Voice’ competition on August 2nd during the theater’s annual Open House.

Signature’s artistic staff chooses finalists based on audition videos submitted by the Monday, July 27th deadline at 6:00 PM. Those interested should upload a video to YouTube and send Signature the link at voice@sigtheatre.org. All are encouraged to apply!

Of the videos submitted for consideration, Signature will select four finalists to compete and perform at the Signature Voice Competition in front of a panel of celebrity judges. Artistic Director Eric Schaeffer (Broadway’s Gigi, Million Dollar Quartet) will be joined by NBC4 News Anchor Wendy Rieger and Signature favorite Nova Payton (Signature’s Dreamgirls, Hairspray). The winner of the Signature Voice Competition will then have the opportunity to perform later that same day at the ‘Broadway on the Plaza’ Finale Concert, one of the most exciting events at the Open House.
