About the Course
Interested in auditioning for Home for the Holidays? This workshop is a great way to prepare! If you’ve ever felt intimidated by participating in a “musical / cold read” style audition, then sign up today. Participants will need to prepare a 1 minute cutting of a Christmas song. You may bring sheet music for the accompanist or an instrumental track. You’ll be given a variety of tips and tricks on how to "perform" the song and bring it to life. Then you’ll be provided with sample audition sides and given an opportunity to practice a "cold read" and receive personalized feedback on how to improve your technique.
