    The slate of your audition is an oft-overlooked part of the process, but it is one of the most important. You've always heard, "start strong," right? In this workshop you will learn how a strong slate can grab the attention of your audience, impress those who you're auditioning for, and start you off strong, with confidence, and ready to show your best stuff! This is a hands-on workshop.
