What to Expect
This audition series is built for performers who already have material prepared for an upcoming show and want the opportunity to present it, workshop it, and strengthen it with guidance from experienced professionals.
Participants can choose to focus on Acting, Singing, and/or Dance, depending on what they are preparing for.
Dance - 5/5
No need to prepare anything in advance. You’ll be taught a fun combination and guided through choreography, with support to help you better understand movement, style, and how to quickly pick up material—just like in a real dance call.
Singing - 5/12
Bring a prepared vocal piece you intend to audition with. This is your chance to present your material and receive feedback on technique, storytelling, and overall performance to help you stand out in the audition room.
Acting - 5/19
Bring a prepared monologue or scene you plan to use for an upcoming audition. After performing your piece, you’ll receive feedback and guidance to help refine your performance. If you don’t have a prepared piece a cold read can be provided to review and perform, helping you build confidence and adaptability—skills often required in real auditions.
