Thank you so much for this helpful information. Do we contact Holly to schedule the audition?

@ASULOT Thank you so much! Is this an open call as in “go whenever and do it” or should we contact Holly to schedule a specific time?

Here is some info about the combined audition: Announcing the 2017 “Combines” in NYC at Chelsea studios on January 20th! Last year’s combined auditions were a huge success and we hope to see a repeat this year. Auditions are from 11am-5pm. There are no appointments, line-up outside the studio; dance call begins at 6pm.

Additional information can probably be found at the Shenandoah website.

Perhaps @VoiceTeacher can chime in on this one.

Thanks so much! @mom4bwayboy

Does anyone have a list of the auditors names for thank yous?

@preppytheatre - Brian Demaris at Arizona State sent my D an email after the audition inviting her to apply to the school and submit a final video audition. We haven’t heard from anyone else yet. Please post when you hear from other schools. Unfortunately, we did not get names from any of the schools to share.

Yes, I got the same or similar email.

Will there be another Combined College Audition offered by these schools in Chicago in February?

Did anyone get an email from Wagner this morning regarding the combines?

What did it say?? @nodaybut2daymom

@preppytheatre It was from the head of the department and it said they were interested based on combine auditions. They encouraged my S to apply and go through the audition process with them. It looked like a form email that went to several individuals.

Did anyone hear from Missouri State University after the combined audition?

@tabers - we haven’t heard from anyone except Arizona State. So far Wagner and ASU are the only two schools I’ve seen mentioned here. I’m curious if anyone has heard from Shenandoah or Texas State as well.

@tabers yes, my D received an email telling her to apply to the school and schedule an audition

Just a heads up on Texas State. The MT program is presenting a new musical which it workshopped in 2015. The production is working with Adam Cates, Andrew Lippa and Larry Grossman. The performances are Feb. 14-19 and it is being directed by Kaitlin Hopkins, head of the MT program. So, my guess is it may be after the show closes that people begin to hear back from Texas State.

Which school did you hear from? Wagner?

Did anyone ever hear from Texas State or Shenandoah?

@Meanasmom I had a friend hear from Shenandoah like the day of and was asked to go for a callback that sunday and was later accepted and asked to visit the school .

@Meanasmom See my post #15 above re: Texas State. :slight_smile:
