We are thrilled to welcome NORA BRENNAN of Nora Brennan Casting (Broadway’s Matilda) for the very first time at Broadway Workshop! Joining Nora is, Broadway casting director – JILLIAN CIMINI (Broadway’s Fun Home, Matilda) of Jim Carnahan & Roundabout Casting.

Students will split up into 2 groups at the start of this special workshop. Each group of students will have a master class with both Jillian & Nora.

Our guest casting directors will personally work with each student on audition technique and song interpretation. This master class will focus on giving actors the opportunity to bring their audition and performance skills to the next level and how to better connect to their audition material! We know our guest casting directors will inspire each student to work to their fullest potential.

Students will also have the opportunity to come together in the final section of the workshop for a Q&A with both casting directors.

STUDENTS SHOULD HAVE 1 or 2 MUSICAL THEATRE SONGS PREPARED FOR THIS WORKSHOP. We will only focus on 16 bar cuts. Each student will need 2 copies of their photo (snapshots are fine) and resumes. Please make sure your sheet music is in the correct key. Students will not be dancing in this workshop!

Don’t miss this amazing opportunity to work with two of the leading casting directors in NYC!
