Memorize ALL of your lines ahead of time. Gather EVERYTHING you will need, water, head shot, resume the works and get there at least 15 minutes before audition. Introduce yourself to everyone and be very pleasant. Set a good look. Be unique. Stand out from the other actors. Broadway isn't for everyone.

Broadway is an audition in a larger perspective. The selected few make it big into the world of acting, and they are the cream of the lot that had auditioned. Broadway has auditions held for Singing, Dancing and Acting. You need to be the best to clear the scrutinizing eyes of the judges.

Different productions may have different requirements, but in general actors wait in large groups until the director calls them to the stage. They might have to sing, perform a short monologue or read part of the play with other actors. Having a head shot and professional resume is also important.
