We 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. Students will break down their song material with one on one coaching in a class setting. Students will also have the opportunity to be part of a Q&A with Ms. Margherita and the Broadway Workshop team.

In the final section of this workshop, students will take part in a dance/movement class led by CLAY THOMSON who has  appeared on Broadway in Matilda, Newsies and on tour in Wicked and West Side Story.

If possible please have a second song to be used as back up. Songs should be 3- hole punched and in a binder. Accompanist will be provided. Students will not need a photo/resume for this class.

Class is limited to 16 students.
