Village Theatre College Prep Program
Village Theatre’s College Prep program is a comprehensive training experience designed to equip students with the essential skills needed for successful college auditions. Covering every aspect of the audition process, the program provides expert guidance on music and monologue selection, helping students refine their performance pieces to meet the expectations of top-tier theater programs. Students will also receive dance prescreen resources, ensuring they are prepared for movement-based auditions.
Additionally, the program includes interview coaching to help students present themselves professionally, along with self-tape techniques to enhance the quality of video submissions. As part of this process, students will receive footage of their self-tapes, allowing them to review and improve their performances. Professional headshot support will be provided, while mock auditions offer students the opportunity to perform in a simulated audition environment and receive constructive feedback.
To ensure students stay on track, the program provides a structured timeline, keeping them accountable for key deadlines. Additional resources include recommendation letters and optional essay support to refine application materials.
By offering a well-rounded approach to audition readiness, Village Theatre’s College Prep Program gives students the tools and confidence to make a lasting impression in their college theater auditions.
Village Theatre’s College Prep program is limited to 12-14 dedicated students (grade 11 through age 20) who are ready to apply themselves fully. This outcome-oriented program is designed for those committed to honing their craft and preparing for college-level theater studies. It is designed to supplement Village Theatre Institute, which focuses on expanding the skillset and craft of the dedicated performer, while focusing on their individual artistic goals.
