Are you a musician as well as an actor and singer?  

If so, I'm sure you've been noticing the call for more and more actor/singer/musicians in the theater today- from John Doyle's Sondheim productions to shows like ONCE and NATASHA, PIERRE & THE GREAT COMET OF 1812.  And what a great way to set yourself apart from the herd in this competitive business!  If you're ready to market yourself as an actor/singer/musician, you have a special opportunity to stand out and book work that few others can.

So, how can you make the best first impression auditioning with your instrument?  

Check out this week's video below for what is being asked of you in these kinds of auditions!

I'm interviewing Erica Spyres who takes us through the step-by-step process of what it was like to audition and be cast in the National Tour of ONCE!  (Be sure to follow her, as she makes her upcoming Broadway debut in CAROUSEL!)

​Watch it now!

​So what do you think?

Now that you've got some tried & true tips, select a song or two that would seriously show off your musicianship and personality on your favorite instrument, and let me know how it goes, in the comments below.

Stay tuned for more from Erica next week and in the meantime check her out at ericaspyres.com

It's great to hear about a different sort of audition experience, the value of special skills and the importance of keeping your body/instrument in shape! Thanks, Elise and Erica!
