Yall your videos have been INSTRUMENTAL in my perspective on the industry. I watched every single one of your videos during the peak of the pandemic and am currently on a Broadway tour! You guys are amazing and I am so glad you are back to creating content!!!
Thankful that you’re posting again. I’ve watched all of your videos so many times, and because of it, they got me Equity, an agent, and now planning on moving to NYC soon! TY both! ❤
What an awesome tutorial! Many thanks to you both. Thank you for clarifying singing that is "character driven," and "stand and plant." Austin said, 'Stand and plant,' and my stomach clenched. Authenticity is The Thing!! Can't wait to take the courses.
I am SO glad I found your channel! I have so many videos to catch up on :) I'm not sure if you will have much info on this... but It would be so helpful to hear about international talents getting on Broadway... (I'm Canadian)
Hi Paige! Neither of us have worked under an international contract here in the US as we are both citizens. So unfortunately we don't have much to offer there. But I do have a Canadian friend, and perhaps if we start the interview series again, we will invite her on.
Greetings 32bc this was great, Very helpful and informative. One question that I wished was addressed was this, I live on the WEST COAST Seattle Wa. I'm a member of AEA, I'm glued to Actors Access and the Equity site, I see these audition notices and my heart sinks because I simply can't snap my fingers and be in NYC instantly, How can a guy like me get to audition for these shows if I'm not in the room where they happen? Seattle is so far from NYC. I had zero success (currently) on finding where to send a video audition, etc. .I'm a working actor here in Seattle I'd like to be a broadway actor. Signed West coast working Actor. thanks so much, keep up the great work, Peace.
Hey there! Thank you both for the content! Could you talk about hard and soft skills necessary to be successful on Broadway or just a successful performer in musical theater? For ex. Is being able to read music a necessity? What is considered an acceptable level of dancing ability? What should the mindset, attitude look like? Etc. What are some non negotiable steps before getting to broadway? Do you recommend doing lower volume/level musical theater before going for Broadway? Post pandemic, are vaccines absolutely necessary? How has theater changed? Also, a Broadway show seems like it could be very physically and mentally demanding. How does one prepare for that? What does it look like to live your life while doing a broadway show? Thank you!
Loving your videos! I've heard you both mention coming from an opera background, and I am in that situation as well, but there are so many more performing opportunities (comminity theater) in my area for contemporary/belting kind of voices. I'd love to hear how you made that change vocally or any tips you have for accessing a less classical sound?
My best advice is to get a vocal coach or instructor (preferably someone that studies vocal pedagogy) that can guide you in a healthy and successful way. Someone who knows the voice, not just different vocal styles. And someone who understands what this transition is and can guide you vocally and even suggest repertoire along the way. Tall order, I know - but worth it. We aren't vocal instructors and I would hate to give you generic vocal advice, as each voice is different. It took me years to figure out how to sing in a healthy way and it was only sustainable after I found just the right teacher.
Hello I just found your channel and so far I’ve found that you guys give great information about the auditioning process! I am not an actor/ person that is in show business but I LOVE musical theatre and would love to write a book about a young girl that goes to New York to audition for this new broadway musical and ends up falling for the guy who wrote the show. *My question is: what of the audition process is most important that I include in the story? Are there parts I can sacrifice for the sake of the story?* I hope my question makes sense and if you can’t answer it don’t worry about it!
It's interesting.. it seems as if casting theater has gone the way of tv/film these days. You can be a great chameleon actor but what they want to see at auditions is... you, which kind of makes acting a moot skill, haha! It's hard as an actor to want to show your chops (e.g., a wide character range) when you're asked to basically play versions of yourself. Thoughts?

Broadway I love
So excited for this!! You two are tremendous
Thank you for watching!
How and where can I find an agent for musical theater? Every website costs $$ for auditioning. Is there possibly a free audition ?
love this channel 🩷 hope to be in broadway one day! 💫

Not quite sure how to answer this one. But we are wishing you the best of luck on your book!
