2012-2013 Casting Workshop
The road to the WGI World Championships...
...continues with our final casting workshop/rehearsal on November 18th. We promise that if you commit to this organization, we will find the best position in the group for you to shine! We will have an informational meeting and registration at 10:30am that covers the tuition and costs associated with the season, fundraising opportunities to help cover tuition, the schedule for the season and the expectations for the group followed by our casting workshop. The least you can expect from the day is improvement to your musical talent and performance abilities!
You must attend the workshop to have the best possible chance at your desired spot!
