According to the audition posting, Disney is searching for male and female presenting comedic actors who move well and excel at expressive physical storytelling. Performers should have a playful, childlike sense of curiosity, with strong comedic instincts and the ability to connect with audiences through physical movement. Experience with clowning or pantomime is listed as a bonus.
The show, which takes place inside the Hyperion Theater, follows two friends on a dreamlike journey through the world of Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas. Throughout the sing-along experience, guests can expect appearances from beloved characters including Jack Skellington and Oogie Boogie as they join in on the film’s iconic songs.
Applicants are being asked to submit two audition videos. The first is a 60-second comedic monologue featuring energetic physicality. The second is a non-verbal storytelling exercise in which performers discover a mysterious box, uncover an object that sparks a memory, and tell a complete story using only expressions and movement while engaging the audience.
Online submissions will be accepted through July 20, 2026, with potential in-person callbacks scheduled for August 20 in Orlando. Disney says performers invited to callbacks will be notified by August 4. Contracts are expected to begin in early October and continue through early January, covering the holiday entertainment season at Walt Disney World.
