Shakespeare Audition Masterclass in Darien, Connecticut

Designed for actors of all ages preparing classical auditions, seeking sharper verse work, or wanting honest, expert guidance in a supportive setting.

Are you interested in building your audition portfolio? Looking for feedback to strengthen your audition and your Shakespeare monologue? Perhaps looking for coaching to sharpen your audition piece as you apply to graduate school? Take Shakespeare on the Sound's Audition Masterclass!

Join Executive Director and Producer, Aaron Simms and Director of Education Stephanie Eiss for a 3-hour workshop designed to explore, refine, and deepen your audition materials for Shakespeare productions and beyond.

You will have fun exploring the text, putting your best self forward, and learn from observing others in the masterclass.

The class is limited to a total of 15 actors.

Wear comfortable clothing that you can move around in.

Participants will also be invited to sign up for audition appointments for Shakespeare on the Sound’s 2027 summer mainstage show, regardless of Equity status!
