Auditioning

For your audition, in most instances, you’ll be with an experienced Quizmaster in a venue during the game. This way you can see how it’s done by some of the best in the business! You’ll get a teeny peek behind the curtain but we’re really focusing on

 

The Auditioning QM

The Hosting QM

Preshow:

  • Arrive 15 minutes before the start time of the game
  • Introduce yourself to your host
  • Grab a good seat and prepare to watch a master at work!

Preshow:

  • Be sure that you’ve read the audition guide that your RMs sent you!
  • Make sure that your auditionee feels welcome and you answer any questions that they might have

During the Show

  • Watch and learn for the first couple of rounds, take it all in, and enjoy!
  • The Quizmaster will hand you the mic to read a round and see how you do! (take a deep breath and have a good time! We know that you’ll do a great job!)
  • Take in any feedback that the Quizmaster gave you and mull it over.
  • If you feel like you want another shot at reading another round (or you just loved it so much that you want to go again) just ask your Quizmaster for another go! 

During the Show

  • Show ‘em how it’s done!
  • Run the show as you usually do (for the most part)
  • Hand your auditionee the mic and let them rock your socks reading a round. Walk around the room and make sure that you can hear them clearly from all over the room
