Musical Theatre Audition Workshop
Instructor: Jackson Sturkey, New York Film Academy's Musical Theatre Conservatory
Pianist:  Sharon Alberson, M.M.

This workshop will focus on the auditioning for musicals; specifically, forming an audition book, audition room etiquette, knowing your type and acting through song.  Participants should memorize one musical theatre song, and plan to sing 16 to 32 bars (approximately 30 seconds to one minute of music).  Bring your sheet music in the appropriate key, an accompanist will be provided.  You may also choose to audit the workshop.
