After struggling with grief following her husband's death, Jan Noyes felt prompted to audition for the 25th-anniversary production of the musical 'Savior of the World'. Despite having no official audition information, she followed spiritual nudges to book a flight to Utah. A week before her flight, she woke in the night and discovered the audition times had been posted, matching her exact travel plans.
Fuller account of this event (paraphrased from the cited modern source):
After retiring in Texas, Jan Noyes felt strongly guided to audition for a theatrical production in Utah. Despite a lack of posted audition details, she booked a trip based on persistent spiritual promptings. She later found that the newly released audition schedule aligned perfectly with her plans, ultimately leading to her casting as Elisabeth.
In Their Own Words
“But as the trip got closer, the Church still hadn’t posted details. Jan considered canceling her ticket but says she experienced multiple spiritual “nudges” about auditioning that she couldn’t deny. About a week before her flight, Jan awoke suddenly in the middle of the night and decided to check the audition site. She discovered that the try-out times had been posted, and miraculously, they lined up with her scheduled plans. She booked an audition appointment immediately. — LDS Living, LDS Living”
