We’ll hand out sides (short script scenes) and walk through how to organize and prepare fast. You’ll learn to break down a scene, find the character, and make strong choices under pressure. Then 3 brave volunteers will perform on stage for an authentic audition experience with live coaching and feedback (totally optional to perform – no pressure if you’d rather watch and learn!).

Success comes from consistent hustle, and we’ll get you fired-up to put in the work every day.
