Audition Workshops
Whether you're a seasoned performer or completely new to the world of acting, auditions can be daunting. Chandler Center for the Arts has partnered with Showtune Productions to offer free audition workshops designed to help aspiring actors prepare, grow, and feel more confident on audition day.
These workshops are crafted to support all experience levels. Led by experienced directors and seasoned actors, the session starts with a free professional headshot photography session and includes personal feedback on prepared material so every participant can gain targeted insight and refine their approach.
At Chandler Center for the Arts, we’re driven by our commitment to accessibility and inclusion in the arts. These workshops offer a way for anyone in the community to cultivate their love of theatre or develop their performance skills. For many, the cost of private coaching or audition prep can be a barrier. By providing these free workshops, we aim to remove those obstacles and welcome everyone onto our stage.
