Theatre auditions by 24 high school seniors were evaluated under two conditions. Four judges ranked the live auditions, while five evaluated videotapes of the same performance. Correlations between the two sets of assessments indicated considerable agreement across methods of evaluation, though they were not equivalent to one another. Videotapes could be useful as a screening device, serving to limit the number of individuals to be seen in live audition in an adjudication program.
