Three's Company with Brooke and Mary

No, Chrissy Snow will not be present BUT you can join Brooke and Mary when they host a different commercial Casting Director each night in this 3 class series.

Everyone's unique, so why not meet some of our talented casting colleagues from other offices to experience their styles firsthand? Join Brooke and Mary for this three-night event, where a different Casting Director will be featured each night. You'll have the opportunity to work with them, get to know them, and most importantly, learn their tips for a successful audition. Each night, you'll work on two different pieces of copy, with each piece being distinct. You'll also engage in partner work and even tackle some non-dialogue pieces. Additionally, Brooke and Mary will be present to help you brainstorm ideas. It's a fantastic opportunity to expand your auditioning skills and network with industry professionals!
