Junior Intensive

MTCA invites you to get your college audition material on its feet with our MTCA Coaches and to participate in a Q&A Panels with College Faculty members!

Junior Intensive is designed to take your work to the next level! Not only are you working a song and a monologue on your feet now, but you’re doing it in combination, starting to string together your work the way you will eventually do in these audition rooms. You’ll get one-on-one exercises and feedback from MTCA Song and Monologue coaches, as well as starting to get feedback on how you present yourself in the room, how you talk to an accompanist, how you transition from piece-to-piece in your work, how you take feedback, etc…. You’ll also get an awesome MTCA Dance class and an informational meeting (parents this includes you!).

This weekend will conclude with a Q&A Panel with actual College Faculty members giving you insight into their specific programs and the process at large.
