Application for Theatre Creative Promise Award

Creative Promise Program Awards in Theatre are determined through the submission of an audition video or (in the case of Designers/Technicians/Playwrights/Directors) an online portfolio that will be adjudicated by members of the Theatre Department faculty. Applicants must also submit personal statement in the form of a written essay or as a video. Lastly, as with all of our CPP programs, applicants must have submitted a complete application for admission to Albright College prior to submission of their audition video/e-portfolio.

ACTING
Actors must submit an audition video or audition on campus. The audition should contain TWO prepared monologues from published plays. Each monologue should be no longer than 60 seconds. Be sure to choose material that is age appropriate and that showcases the breadth of your acting abilities (vocal range and flexibility, diction, characterization, ability to play an action/pursue an objective, etc.). Please do NOT submit musical theatre selections. Musical theatre students are encouraged to submit audition videos of songs from Broadway musicals to the Music Department (CPP Awards in Vocal Performance).

Videos submissions should be uploaded to Youtube, Vimeo, or Google Video. Direct link to video MUST be provided!
