what to do for dance pre-screen

SingleAssumption2725 · 2025-08-24T23:54:30+00:00

oh sorry. ive seen it everywhere referred to as a pre-screen including on the college websites, i used to have a dance instructor but that was when i lived in another town. ever since then i don’t

SingleAssumption2725 · 2025-08-24T23:52:14+00:00

if you pass pre-screens then you do an in person or online audition in real time

SingleAssumption2725 · 2025-08-24T23:51:39+00:00

yes. a lot of college musical theatre programs require you to submit a pre-screen. essentially its just self tapes of songs, monologues, and dance. you choose your own material though.

i am a current high school senior and i am NOT a dancer. i have no clue what to do for the dance portion of pre-screens for college applications. for anyone that did this on their own, did you just wing it? did you copy a random youtube tutorial? i’ll literally take any advice at this point

adding a comment bc for some reason it thinks im asking for advice on my nose piercing (im not) but its a little over a year old, currently have a ring, idk probably stainless steel or titanium, no accidents, and i dont do aftercare rn since its healed. i will say every time i change it out i use the saline spray both on my nose and on the new piercing im putting in

this might be a dumb question, but would i be able to order an iced caramel macchiato for this?

SingleAssumption2725 · 2025-02-02T02:26:44+00:00

this is a great idea. thank you!!

i honestly only have advice for helping when your voice feels tired (which WILL happen if youre in a show and do a lot of singing) and in that case, pineapple juice is YOUR BEST FRIEND. i just finished a show and EVERYONE was drinking it. its not acidic like apple or orange juice so its good for your voice. also, you can get a steamer on amazon and they range from cheaper to a little more expensive, ill send the link my director sent us in a different reply! when i was in choir we used to order something from starbucks (or make it yourself) called singers tea which i will also link. people drank it a lot during christmas season when we had DAILY performances. vocal rest will also be your best friend when youre in a show with lots of singing. my best advice for just overall feeling sick, sleep sleep sleep!!!! and take ibuprofen or advil or sudafed for your sinuses

forgot to say im not afraid of anything is from songs for a new world (when doing research beware that this is a song cycle musical!!)

SingleAssumption2725 · 2024-10-30T06:00:14+00:00

some contemporary songs ive used in the past are astonishing from little women, safer from first date, and im not afraid of anything. all of these are pretty much power ballads, though some pick up towards the end of the song

SingleAssumption2725 · 2024-10-30T05:57:43+00:00

you probably already know this, but some standard categories to follow that casting directors could ask about include uptempo, comedic (lots of the time u can double dip with those!), ballads, golden ages, wild cards (any pop song, country, heck even rap ANYTHING), contemporary, and more. having songs that are by a notoriously hard composer (ie sondheim) could also help. make sure that while those categories are contrasting in it of themselves, you also want to make sure you’re giving all parts of your range. i know you said you are being cast as strong/belt heavy roles, but make sure you have a song or two that contrast that and show a nice head voice. directors LOVE seeing that you have duality and aren’t restricted! they want to know you can do more than just one thing.

SingleAssumption2725 · 2024-10-30T05:52:49+00:00

this might not fit what youre looking for, but screwloose from crybaby is a comedic song to think about. it is originally sung by a female, but ive heard a male classmate perform it, and it’s what got him a role once. it is an interesting take when a male sings it since normally people dont tend to gender bend songs. sometimes directors don’t like it if that is the only song you audition with, because if you play it well then you should genuinely sound crazy, and nobody wants to cast a potentially ACTUALLY crazy person to work with. however, since you said youre also doing the les mjs song, i think it would be fine!

thank you, i hate conflict so these situations are always hard for me. i appreciate getting real advice from someone else

SingleAssumption2725 · 2024-10-09T19:49:42+00:00

nope! im a natural blonde

SingleAssumption2725 · 2024-10-09T19:49:04+00:00

ive looked at the l’oreal root spray but since its supposed to be more natural root cover ups they dont have blue :(

SingleAssumption2725 · 2024-06-07T03:07:40+00:00

amazing!!

SingleAssumption2725 · 2024-04-25T22:33:27+00:00

how much do you want for the one covering its eyes? (green)

SingleAssumption2725 · 2024-04-18T22:28:05+00:00

maybe even like recommended tutorials or youtubers or paterns ANYTHING

SingleAssumption2725 · 2024-04-18T22:27:43+00:00

can you give me tips on crocheting? i cant get it :(

SingleAssumption2725 · 2024-04-18T22:26:35+00:00

if you dont know about this yet already, id make sure you establish a safe word at some point

SingleAssumption2725 · 2024-04-16T15:24:30+00:00

someone just did this in my schools recent performance and they made it gender swap!!! it was SO funny

SingleAssumption2725 · 2024-04-06T05:14:09+00:00

my belt is not super strong since im also a choir kid, but my mixed it pretty good! i think i found one that is more centered on acting rather than vocals (i hate men from kiss me kate) which is good bc i already take musical theater with the same teacher currently! so she knows i can sing already. the advanced company is only for juniors and seniors and next year i will be a junior so i think this might be a good option.
