Theater level

The "Theater Level" auditions were broadcast on August 15, 2011 on a special program called Idol Puerto Rico - Theatre Edition. During this audition, the 80 contestants sang individually in front of the judges. They were then evaluated in groups of eight to gradually reduce the number. Those selected got to choose a partner to sing a duet. The jury listened each pair and eliminated several contestants. For the final round of this stage of the competition, the contestants sang solo one more time. In the end, the judges chose the twenty-four semifinalists.[2]

Semi-finals

The semi-finals began with a total of 24 contestants. They were broadcast on August 29–30, 2011. After the semi-finals, 12 of the contestants were eliminated, leaving the remaining 12 for the Finals.
