College Auditon Workshop
The Broadway Artists Alliance College Preparation Workshop is designed to assist High School Junior and Seniors who will be auditioning for collegiate performing arts programs. Students will select and workshop audition material that shows them off to their best advantage, and they will receive feedback from a Broadway Artist Alliance staff member who specializes in college auditions and has sat on audition panels for a number of major schools including New York University, Fordham University, and Wagner College. Because enrollment for the College Audition Preparation Workshop is very limited, participants receive a great deal of personal attention to make sure they are preparing the best possible material to gain acceptance to their top choice performing arts programs.
Participants may attend the two-day workshop only, or they may extend their studies with three private coachings (which can be be conducted in person in New York or via Skype) that will give their audition that perfect polish!
