My theatre company is looking to put together a teen intensive summer workshop/camp/showcase. Right now this is just a project in the works. I am looking to see what kind of response I get and if teens are actually intrested in doing this, before I put money into rehearsal space and the theatre.
About the program:
This program will be designed for teens ages 12-17. It will be a cast of between 15-20 actors. The 2-3 week program will include the following...
-Audition preperation
-How to find auditions
-choosing your song cuts for audiions
-movement classes
-headshots and resume building
-basic theatre history
-voice and speech for stage
-basic theatre skills (improv, movement ect...)
-Participation in a professional showcase (which will be attened by agents, casting directors, and directors).
A little about the program...
The program will be a 2-3 week intensive showcase study. in this time cast members will learn correct audition technique, and put together a professional showcase wich will showcase their talent in the best way possible. By this I mean each actor will be seen and have their moments...this means EVERYONE!
Actors/students will learn what to sing for professional auditions, how to find them and how to prepare for them.
They will put together a resume and we will provide a headshot for them free of charge!
The cost for this program will be about 200-300 dollars per student and this includes everything! (family discounts will be givin for sibling students)
Intrested? All you have to do is drop me an e-mail telling me age, name, and availability of student, along with any questions.
The reason I am looking at availibility is because I want to be able to do it at a point in the summer that is good for everyone that is intrested in the program.
By e-mailing me you are not signing up for the program your just showing intrest.
Anyone who does show intrest will be first on the list for registration when the time comes (within the next month or so). If you have a headshot or recent photo or resume you can paste it to your e-mail. Please make sure to put "summer" in the e-mails title!
Thanks for your time!

I am extremely interested, but I highly doubt it will be taking place near where I live. Where is it going to be located?

It sounds awesome, but I live in central Illinois and don't have the money to make it out there.

That sounds so amazing! Damn, why must I live in LA??? But will it be going in a couple years do you think? I'll be 17 then and could probably save up some money to go to NY for a summer by that time.
