Workshops Breakdown

 

​The Audition workshop is Sept 23-26 you register and choose one of the days to attend. Select a monologue (several are suggested on our website) of your choice from those suggested or one from another source. You will also read responsively from the script with other actor who register for the workshop. Our Artistic Director will provide you with both aural and written feedback and answer any questions you may have about the audition process. She will also explain what directors look for in an audition and how that will vary from show to show and character to character.

 

The acting workshop is week nights from Sept 30th - Oct 11th and will focus on character development, relationships between characters, pacing of a character’s lines, and the character arch of each character and how each character fits into the overall telling of the story.

Actors may choose to register for either or both workshops. If an actor elects to register for both workshops they may, if they choose, be cast in and be a part of the show. There is a significant discount actors who select the whole package which includes both workshops and participation in the show.
