For this series we have asked former campers to share some­thing about their expe­ri­ences audi­tioning for schools. If you have a story you’d like to share, let us know.

I audi­tioned in Chicago and the city was a perfect atmos­phere for what was to come. Every moment was taken in and cher­ished, as it should have been. I wish I had done so with the actual audi­tions though, it all went by so fast. Another thing to keep in mind is focusing your energy cor­rectly. I was in a new and exciting place, doing new and exciting things and that gave me a feeling like no other; chan­neling that feeling in to your audi­tions is some­thing I would strongly suggest.
I felt very good about my prepa­ration for the actual audi­tions and my only mishaps stemmed from ner­vousness and lack of con­fi­dence. The one regret I have is not audi­tioning for more schools and no doing a single walk-in audition.

Overall, audi­tioning at Unifieds was a great decision and a great marker to have in my life and refer back to when nec­essary to remind myself why I do this in the first place.
