INFORMATION ON CLASS
Audition Techniques Class with Jamie McGonnigal
Through this four-week workshop, Jamie will be working with students in the class on not just selection of the proper material, but on everything that is presented in the audition from start to finish.
As many of us know, we are being judged from the second our foot steps through that door. So many people out there have incredible talent and many even know how to showcase it well, but far too few know how to make the people behind the table WANT to work with them.
Putting your best foot forward from sending in your resume to your third callback is essential. Through calling on Broadway veterans and his own experience working with some of Broadway’s best, Jamie will help you find the great auditioner in you!
