Auditions Held For YATP Youth Classes for 2011-2012

By:

FMPAT announces auditions for new students for 2011 Fall Term. The auditions for openings in our esteemed musical theatre and acting program will be held on the following date: Monday, August 22nd by appointment only. Openings are filled on a space available basis.

Since 1993 FMPAT's Young Artist Training Program is proud to have been providing professional level training for students interested in pursuing a career in the performing arts. Our program is one of the areas oldest and most unique youth training programs. The audition only program is purposely quite small to afford us the opportunity to offer a very low teacher student ratio. Students are able to work with the areas top teachers and working professionals. We have a wonderful history of producing outstanding young professional performers, directors, producers and choreographers. Fall term includes opportunities for students to work with professional teachers/coaches led by Stephanie Riggs.

Auditions: All youth and teen students, ages 7 - 18 must audition for the program. Only a limited number of students will be accepted, on a space available basis. Previous experience is helpful, but not necessary, as the faculty looks for bright, naturally gifted children that are ready to learn and whom take direction well. Our program is unique in offering training for the student who is craving a professional work environment, where they will be challenged constantly to work to the best of their abilities among other young performers with similar goals and dedication.

Information on what to prepare for the auditions, along with other important program information may be found in the YATP 2011-2012 Student Handbook found on the Admissions page in the Children's School section of our website. www.fmpat.org
