- If providing a tape, the song should be at the beginning of side A or B. We will not rewind your tape.
- Be well presented, smart appearance is a must
- Arrive at least fifteen minutes before your audition
- Look interested, smile we will enjoy your performance if you are having a good time
- If you have auditioned previously to us, use new material or change the old material to ensure it is dynamic

- The act must be no more than 5 minutes long
- Everyone who is performing in the act should turn up for the audition

- The performance is judged on the people who have attended the audition
