About the Course

Interested in auditioning for Clue or Home for the Holidays? This workshop is a great way to prepare! If you’ve ever felt intimidated by participating in a “cold read” style audition, then sign up today. Participants don’t need to bring anything with them – just a can-do attitude and a willingness to learn. You’ll be given a variety of tips and tricks on how to quickly scan an audition side and come up with choices that will help you stand out in a crowd. Then you’ll be provided with sample audition sides and given an opportunity to put what you’ve learned to use and receive personalized feedback on how to improve your technique.
