NYIOP New York Auditions
NYIOP New York Auditions from November 29th – December 2nd in NYC.
I am posting the information below from an email sent to me by NYIOP International.
You can go to their site and put yourself on the mailing list. The email updates seem to provide more information than their web site, or at least it seems that it is easier to find the information in their emails. If you are interested in the auditions, I’d encourage you to read this entire post.
Here is the complete information about the upcoming NYIOP New York Auditions from November 29th – December 2nd in NYC!
The NYIOP PREVIEW Auditions will take place on November 29-30 at NOLA Studios and will be attended by two North American companies, two or three European companies and a panel of agencies as well. The final two days of the auditions (Dec 1-2) will take place on the stage of Merkin Concert Hall and be attended by the entire panel of companies attending and probably a few more along the way! You will also note the repertoire to be cast for this session is finally in, see below. The fee is $395.00.
There is still a limited number of spots left in the PREVIEW auditions. Don’t miss it!
