The final showcase performance will delight you with classic characters from your favorite fables and fairytales.
Triumphant Tryouts Ages 8-18
Let's face it. Auditions can be scary. We all get that feeling in the pit of our stomach right before an audition. But if you're prepared and well-rehearsed, auditioning can be fun! Learn how to pick pieces that are perfect for you and how to shape those pieces into unforgettable performances. You will "build your book" by adding appropriate audition material to your repertoire, as well as practical techniques for dance calls, cold reads, focusing and relaxation techniques and more! So get ready to knock 'em dead!
