About
Theatre veteran Kyle Blair will coach 10 auditionees through a mock audition process and give constructive feedback on their technique, audition pieces and impression in the room. This is your chance to try out a new monologue, gain insider knowledge on the audition experience and learn from an industry pro. Whether you are an actor in training, or a beginner, all are welcome.
Want to perform? Performance slots will be granted on a first come first serve basis to the first 10 participants who register and indicate a performance slot upon registration.
Want to watch? All students looking to learn through osmosis can attend, registration is still required.
