THE COACHING: You may work on up to 3 memorized pieces, standard regional repertory audition, one classical & one contemporary - UNDER ONE MINUTE EACH and do time them — and a song with which you can work. For your contemporary monologue, it's highly recommended you use a local playwright's work. For your classical piece, please use 10-16 lines of verse. If you wish to explore a Sonnet, they are the perfect length and there are over 150 of them. For your song, please be prepared with recorded accompaniment or sing a capella (if you are highly comfortable doing so).

 

Seminar, Hour 1 — tips from the other side of the table; tackling the black hole the entrance, introduction and exit of your two minutes; how to reverse the power structure and truly shine.

Coaching, Hours 2 & 3 — exercises with entrances/exits and text; personalized coaching on your material. This is a highly active workshop, with engaging exercises that are immediately applicable to your pieces.

Your Audition Package, Hour 4 - polishing your audition package. Please bring your headshot & resume.
