Dancing Audition Workshop for Musical Theatre
Saturday, April 19, 2025
12PM - 2PM
at Billie Limacher Bicentennial Theater
​
Join Olivia Thoele, the choreographer for Matilda, for a class designed specifically to prepare actors for the dance portion of a musical theatre audition. She will focus on dance technique, which includes instruction on fundamental dance skills. Musicality includes practicing movement synchronization with music, understanding the rhythm, and conveying the emotional narrative through dance. You will also learn choreography breakdown, which is learning a preset dance combination similar to what is seen in an audition. Finally, audition etiquette is where you will be given guidance on proper attire, stage presence, and how to navigate the audition room with confidence.
We invite actors of all ages (however, we ask anyone under the age of 13 be accompanied by a parent or guardian).
