Audition Repertoire & Performance Coaching
In audition-focused classes, participants will explore script and score analysis, physical storytelling, gesture and body awareness, and strategies for managing performance anxiety. Each student will receive two new, customized audition pieces and will leave with a stronger, more personalized audition portfolio.
Throughout the intensive, students will benefit from:
• Individual vocal coaching sessions
• Group masterclasses with guest industry professionals
• Peer collaboration and ensemble-building
This is more than just a summer camp—it’s a transformative vocal training experience designed to empower the next generation of confident, connected, and expressive storytellers through song.
