Arrive at least 15 minutes early. You don't want to have to rush into your audition. Give yourself time to find the space and warm up.
Pack your bag with a book in case there is waiting and a bottle of water. Not every place has a water fountain.
Be nice to everybody. You never know if the person you are speaking to is important.
There may be several people waiting with you to audition. Remember that they are competing with you for the same job. Don't let them intimidate you.
Wear neat, comfortable clothing. I know you want to look nice, but make sure you can move around the room.And don't wear a costume. Your outfit can suggest the character such as a high-collar blouse for a period piece, but don't get all dressed up.
Try to find some background information about who you are auditioning for. If you are auditioning for a particular company, be familiar with their work. It can also help you decide which pieces to choose for your audition.
If no information for the audition is given, keep your monologue to about a minute. Most directors can tell in that time if they are interested. Have several pieces prepared and one longer piece in case they ask to see more.
Bring clean and clearly marked sheet music. If you are auditioning for a musical, be sure the music you give the piano player is cut down to 16 bars and is free of stray marks and coffee stains.
Remember to smile. If you are nervous, take a deep breath and try to relax. Recognize that you are not going to get every job you audition for, but can learn from every experience.
When you are called in for your audition, be confident and smile and unless it is vital, avoid asking too many questions as your audition probably has a tight time slot.
Definitely do not ask if you will be called back. The casting director will let you know, that you can be sure of. If you do get called back, wear the same outfit as during your audition.

you may not get an audition with out an agent and you may not get an agent with out your mothers and fathers' doing it for you, and you may not get an agent with out guidance and adventure, a great number of it that takes years, so which you likely is only not waiting till now all the disney classes have replaced and you will not want to do them at that element besides. and what's your sister? Oh you're saying she is your agent. sorry would not paintings that way. would desire to have a genuine one.

Try Puck from A Midsummer Night's Dream. It may be a bit older than 9, but it is good material!
I just remembered great monologue material for you: Rhoda in The Bad Seed. Check it out!
