PATA Monologue Prep Workshop
Rock Your PATA General Audition!
March 24th 12:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. ($40)
Class Overview: A 3-hour monologue audition intensive geared towards prepping you for your 2 minutes in the room at the 2018 PATA General Auditions.
These monologue generals are an amazing way to be seen by more than 60 production companies. These companies attended in 2017 - click here.
Lydia will provide focused and intensive one-on-one coaching with your one or two monologues. She’ll talk you through what to expect on the day of the audition, how to present your best self, and do a mock audition run through with the entire class at the end of our time together. There also may be a guest Director present for additional feedback.
A note from Lydia: With a 95% callback rate for monologue auditions and a recent booking through Cast Iron for a major television network under my belt, I love to help actors craft their monologues to best showcase their strengths in a vulnerable and intimate way.

"As of writing this review, I've taken two classes here: Adv. Character Development with Erik and the Monologue Audition class with Lydia. They were fantastic! Both were patient, knowledgeable instructors who connect with actors of all levels. Highly recommended you take their courses. Excited to take their classes again after I graduate from PSU."
