MSVMA invites high school students to participate in its Musical Theatre Audition Workshop.  Participants must be in 11th or 12th grade, enrolled,  and in good standing in their school's vocal music program. Student's school must be a member of MSVMA.

This is a multi-faceted opportunity for MSVMA students, families, and directors.  A full agenda is in the works, but participants can expect the following:

• Presentations on audition expectations and experiences
• To be taught a dance combo that they will then receive feedback on from our clinicians
• A monologue audition with feedback
• A voice audition with feedback
• Presentations to help understand the workload, scheduling process, and requirements of the college audition process. These presentations will be for parents, directors, AND students. 
• Networking & Camaraderie
• A low-pressure environment where students can work together to grow and learn to comfortable approach the audition process.

All students will need to prepare the following:

• TWO 32-Bar (60 Second) contrasting cuts
• One 1-Minute Monologue from a full-length play or musical
• Students should have these materials memorized
• Bring a 3-ring binder with both of your full songs and the audition cuts you're performing from them (clearly marked) with you to the workshop
