No, you do not need to audition to participate in this program.
There are a couple of extra sessions where students will be able to engage in performance, but aside from monologues for their mock auditions, this program does not focus on the performance aspect of theater.
Yes. Students will learn strategies and skills that are applicable to all areas of acting, both in theater and film.
This year have been difficult for all of us in many ways. The arts have been hit particularly hard because so much of the work we do requires physical closeness and interaction. While our traditional summer program on the UCI campus has been cancelled this year to prioritize the health and safety of our participants, instructors, and staff, we still need to support our community of artists.
For that reason, we are excited to offer the Summer Academies LITE program. It provides advanced young artists the tools they will need as they prepare applications and audition material for college and career pursuits. It also provides much needed employment for our team of instructors ⎼ practicing artists themselves ⎼ who have seen their commissions, gigs, and contracts cancelled.
If you are able, please consider making a gift of any amount to support the Summer Academies LITE program. Your contribution will make a significant impact by supporting the artists who make it possible.
