Musical Theatre is moving toward an era where casting directors are asking actors to submit themselves for projects “on tape”. Berkeley Playhouse is offering a rare and essential opportunity for our pre-professional actors to create their own reel of audition material to submit to future productions and performing arts programs.

Each actor will receive professional coaching on:• Contemporary and classical monologues• Uptempo and ballad songs• A variety of dance styles

All work will be edited together into a polished reel for audition submissions.
