Heading to a musical theatre audition? In the first of a two-part series, a Broadway voice teacher explains what to bring and how to prepare. If you've never been to a professional musical theatre audition, it can feel like a mysterious black box. What really happens in the room where it happens? What do I bring in with me? Will they really count my bars and yell at me for having 35? Why is everyone in the hallway holding a binder? Who do I talk to if I have questions?

Ahh, September: falling leaves, pumpkin spice EVERYTHING, and back-to-school sales around every corner of the internet. It also marks the beginning of “fall audition season” — aka the time when regional theatres start booking their final shows of the year (i.e. holiday); Broadway is casting shows opening later in the ‘26-’27 season; and cruise ships are starting up their next nine-month contracts.

An Evening with Sutton Foster and Kelli O’Hara at the San Francisco Symphony is exactly the kind of event that reminds you why live performance is so magical. Inspired by the legendary 1962 television special featuring Carol Burnett and Julie Andrews, the evening celebrates not only two extraordinary contemporary performers, but also the timeless joy of song, storytelling, and musical theatre itself. Rather than simply presenting a concert, Foster and O’Hara crafted an affectionate homage to the women who paved the way for generations of Broadway artists.

The stories about Francis Albert Sinatra are endless. Two decades before Beatlemania hit the States, thousands of girls queued around the block so they could see the short, skinny kid from Hoboken sing while they cried, screamed and fainted. He had a thick New Jersey accent and a thin skin, punching one critic in the back of the head and physically threatening other members of the press. His friendship with mob members and their goons supposedly helped him out of a recording contract and for decades the FBI kept a file on him running to thousands of pages. He was close friends with Marilyn Monroe and gifted her a dog; she named it “Maf”, short for Mafia Honey, just to wind him up. At the age of 48, he dated a teenage Mia Farrow and the two eventually married in 1966.
