As I read through the discussions, people mention that the schools will look for types for their college class group. What are the common/different “types” in MT?
Type is so idiosyncratic that it’s better to understand it as a concept than it is to try and put together a list of archetypes. Backstage did a pretty digestible article about type recently: https://www.backstage.com/magazine/article/find-type-actor-3730/
This is very helpful, also! https://auditioningforcollege.com/musical-theatre/rep/understanding-your-type/
Great article, thanks @onette
