it depends but they might ask you to read a monologue or a script!. i would have your monologue memorized but usually they will not have you memorize the script, you will be doing a cold read!. After you have read, they might ask you to read it again in a different way, maybe this time act like your scared or like you just won the lottery!. If you are going to an open call for a movie audition, they will usually not ask you to read, but instead might ask you a little bit about yourself, like what you do for fun and whether or not you get good grade!. they just want to get to know you and your personality!. try not to talk about acting too much!. if you are going to any other type of audition, you will probably be reading!. if you know the character who you are auditioning for, try to dress like the character through subtle hints, you don't have to go all out, but if you are auditioning for someone who primarily works in an office, try to wear a nice suit!. just remember to be relaxed and to be yourself, and don't worry! there will be plenty of more auditions so if you do not get the part, just get back out there and keep auditioning!! good luck i'm sure you will do great =)Www@QuestionHome@Com

It depends on the audition

Usually a monologue for a play, and if it's a musical a song!.
