Faculty from theatre programs at Boston Conservatory at Berklee and Montclair State University joined us live on Playbill July 10 to answer your questions about their specialized college theatre experiences, audition tips, and more. You can watch the entire broadcast above.

Notable alumni of the theatre schools include Kimiko Glenn, Chad Kimball, Stephanie Umoh, Constantine Maroulis, Erin Davie, and Hayley Podschun (from BoCo); and Rob McClure, Joshua Dela Cruz, Minami Yusui, Andrea Dotto, and Gerard McIntyre (from MSU).

The talk is part of Playbill and The Growing Studio's new weekly series College Theatre Auditions. Each Friday at 1PM ET, faculty from the top college theatre programs nationwide will join us for an hour-long live interview on Playbill.com and Playbill's YouTube channel and Facebook page.

If you're a high school student looking to get a degree in theatre, this is a chance to demystify the college audition process, find out what to expect from a college theatre experience, and to get to know the top schools and their faculty before making decisions on where to apply.

Interviews will be available to watch on demand after the live streams at Playbill.com/CollegeThatreAuditions.

Additional schools coming up on College Theatre Auditions include Ithaca College and Syracuse University (July 17), Marymount Manhattan College and Manhattan School of Music (July 24), Florida State University and AMDA College of the Performing Arts (July 31), University of North Carolina and Virginia Commonwealth University (August 7), and Penn State University and Temple University (August 14).
