How many of you feel great when you sing your audition song…and then politely nod in terror when they invite you to come back for the dance audition?
Well, now you can bring it down a few notches on the scary-meter because Broadway dance captain Angel Creeks (FOSSE, CHICAGO, STARLIGHT EXPRESS) is here to give you the tools to truly succeed at the dance call.
This is not your regular dance class…you will get individual attention and help from someone who has been on the other side of the casting table numerous times.
Whether you have never taken a jazz class in your life or you are a seasoned dancer, you will gain simple, usable, and practical tools to succeed in the dance call. (P.S. It’s rarely about being the best dancer.)
