Day 2- Broadway Teacher's Workshop

NYC Food Carts- I absolutely became addicted to these food carts! From hot dogs to bacon, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwiches, you can find one of these on nearly every corner!


Workshop 1: Vocal Interpretation with Spider-Man music director Kimberly Grisby-
This workshop had all of the participants sight reading music from the musical, along with a Q+A with the music director and her experience through the production process. Kimberly also worked on Spring Awakening with Duncan Sheik and was such a down to earth lady! What a talent.

Workshop 2: Musical Theatre Auditions-
Ran by Marc Bruni-casting director/director, and Julia Murney-Elphaba in Wicked, this workshop covered the dos and don'ts of auditioning for musical theatre. Julia performed a "bad" audition and we were supplied with tips and tricks to teach students for winning the role.

Workshop 3: Extreme Combat-
Ran by Michael Rossmy from the Yale School of Drama, this workshop highlighted easy ways to have safe, effective stage combat within productions.I definitely got to punch many of my fellow teachers in the stomach and back slam them. Sure enough, we all came out intact and friends still.

Show: Sister Act
This show was so much fun! I was a little hesitant since I enjoyed the movie and didn't want to see a remake on the stage, but there were no songs present from the movie and the storyline completely worked! The harmonies and energy in this production are outstanding and gets you up out of your seat wanting to dance. I give this production **** stars!!
