Shadow's How to Make Auditioning, Acting Course With Jennifer Rincon Begins 5/23

Shadow Theatre Company presents "How to Make Auditioning, Acting," a multi-week acting course taught by master acting teacher Jennifer Rincon. Every actor, even the stars on the big screen, needs training to fine-tune their craft and hone auditioning skills. This course focuses on motivational acting techniques, while also preparing students for the audition process. Actors will prepare at least one two-minute monologue, contemporary or classical, to work on in class.

This four-week course will be held 5/23, 5/30, 6/6, and 6/13 from noon until 3pm at Shadow Theatre Company. There will be a bonus class (on June 20th from noon -3) when actors will have an opportunity to present audition material to professional directors and artistic directors from the community. Tuition for the course is $250. Enrollment is limited to 16 students. To enroll please email info@shadowtheatre.com
