It is not enough these days to be only talented - a great singer, a great actor or even both. Performing is about telling stories. And as much as most people hate to audition, it is really just about telling shorter stories. Stories that are a minute to five minutes long. Being so prepared and so true that casting people will be swept up into your journey and will have to come along with you for the ride. Making you a performer to be remembered, after seeing dozens or possibly hundreds of others.
