Abstract Background

Season 59 (2026-27)
Audition Call

Wisconsin Singers is UW–Madison’s premier Broadway-style touring production, combining high-level performance with meaningful outreach across the Midwest. More than just a show, Wisconsin Singers is a community of artists, educators, and leaders who use music to connect with audiences of all ages — from school gyms and community theaters to professional performing arts centers.
Each season, Wisconsin Singers creates a fully staged, original production featuring singers, dancers, a live band, and a dedicated technical crew. Members rehearse weekly on campus, then take the show on the road to represent the University of Wisconsin–Madison through performance, workshops, and community engagement.

 

Being part of Wisconsin Singers means:

  • performing a fast-paced, high-energy show for diverse audiences

  • developing skills in musicianship, collaboration, professionalism, and leadership

  • working closely with peers who are passionate, supportive, and driven

  • gaining real-world experience in touring, education, and live production

  • building lifelong friendships and professional connections
     

Whether you’re a performer on stage, a musician in the band, or a technician behind the scenes, every role matters. We are looking for students who are not only talented, but also reliable, curious, and excited to grow.
If you love music, thrive in a team environment, and want to be part of something that reaches far beyond campus, Wisconsin Singers might be the place for you.
