Immerse yourself in musical theatre! Focus on and improve your musical theatre audition techniques!
Grades 9–12
Gain confidence and a stronger understanding of the audition process for musical theatre and the many paths to performance! Identify the multitude of character “types” in musical theatre, which will help you choose, prepare, and practice a variety of audition materials.
You will learn:
- To thoughtfully analyze monologues and develop a character;
- How to choose and perfect appropriate audition materials;
- How to prepare for high school, college, and professional auditions.
Participate in master classes and workshops designed to expose you to current trends and topics on the Great White Way! The Musical Theatre Boot Camp culminates in a mock audition with a casting director from a professional theatre, who will give constructive feedback on your monologue and 16-bar vocal audition material.
