As part of the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall's commitment to its Education Program, Seth Rudetsky has been invited to hold a complimentary Master Class on Audition Techniques on April 2nd from 1:30-3:00 PM. This Master Class is being held on the day Seth will be at the Van Wezel to announce the Hall's 2012/13 Broadway Season.
Seth is the Broadway host, seven days a week, on SiriusXM Satellite Radio. As a pianist, Seth has played for more than a dozen Broadway shows including RAGTIME, LES MIZ and PHANTOM. He was the Artistic Producer/Music Director for the first five annual Actors Fund Fall Concerts including DREAMGIRLS with Audra McDonald (recorded on Nonesuch Records) and HAIR with Jennifer Hudson (recorded on Ghostlight Records, Grammy Nomination). As an author, he penned the book BROADWAY NIGHTS which was also released as an audio book on audible.com featuring Andrea Martin, Jonathan Groff and Kristin Chenoweth, as well as the recently published MY AWESOME/AWFUL POPULARITY PLAN (Random House) which was just recorded as an audio book with Megan Hilty and Jesse Tyler Ferguson.
The participants in the invited class will be professional actors representing Sarasota's local theatres and some local high school students. Participants are being asked to prepare 16 bars of a song so that Mr. Rudetsky can work with them on audition technique. Twenty to thirty aspiring actors will also be invited to attend to view the Master Class.
