Is the singer you hear in the rehearsal studio not always the singer that the auditioners or audience hear? FROM STUDIO TO STAGE is a series of performance classes designed to bridge the gap between practice and performance.
Unique in its format, each FROM STUDIO TO STAGE class features two industry professionals: vocal technician Natalie Wilson and a guest coach from "the other side of the table": a manager, agent, director, or casting director who knows what gets people hired.
Each 3-hour class is limited to just 9 singers, so each singer gets 15-20 minutes of individual coaching on audition or performance repertoire from both a vocal technique angle and presentation angle, in a supportive atmosphere in front of an audience.
Auditors get to observe what it looks like when other people audition, and gain valuable insight into what people behind the table see.
Singer slots are $110. Auditor slots are $25.
