NON-MUSICAL PRODUCTION WORKSHOP :: TRANSYL-MANIA
Getting ready to start auditioning for colleges? Wondering what you can do to help you stand out from the other hundreds of students auditioning for the same program? Preparation is key. Come learn about what the people on the other side of the table are thinking the moment you step into the room and how you can maximize your potential to impress. Also, learn some text analysis tools that will help you unlock character and action; making any monologue stand out from the rest.
All students must bring a 30-60 second monologue or 16 bars of a song to work on. The selection must be memorized and a hard copy must also be brought. If bringing a musical selection, students must provide a digitally recorded accompaniment track.
