Meet
Craig Stevens, he's fierce and collects show posters. Meet his "girlfriend," Janine, she recently lost 78lbs on the Subway diet. Recent graduates of Virginia's prestigious Tidewater Community College, these love birds have moved up to the city in hopes of making it on Broadway. Hailed as "the most clueless boy in New York" by Gawker.com, Craig has been sharing his New York adventures for the past year on Youtube with the "
Craig Stevens Video Blog." Now Craig and Janine are coming to you live, teaching a performance based masterclass to some fancy Broadway folks, performing an original one-act musical, and giving you the tools you'll need to make it on the great white way!
