Aspiring actors will learn warm-ups, how to break down a scene and how to rehearse a scene for an audition. Student will take a trip to the Big Apple, New York City, to experience a few shows, take a few master classes, and see if this is the field they are interested in truly pursuing. When they return they will work on a cabaret style Showcase and perform! They will also be able to take home their new head shot and resume.
