<p>Glassharmonica, you don’t have to worry about the taping concern. Acting faculty members do travel to the regional/Unified auditions, and there is no reason to try to avoid them.</p>
<p>It sounds like after your experience with music auditions, this coming year is going to be relatively easy for you.</p>
<p>Although we also live somewhat near New York, we scheduled my son’s NYC auditions over two days during the period of Unifieds and stayed at an inexpensive hotel (the Wolcott) in New York rather than making day trips and/or having auditions scheduled really close together. If that would be doable for you, it results in much less stress on the student.</p>
<p>However, if there would not be a concern about missing school, and your daughter is used to popping up to the city on her own, and finding her way around there, a more spread out schedule of day trips might work.</p>
