Not sure which dorm you visited but it was not Spruce. I personally have walked the Spruce stairs many times and it is a spacious well lit interior staircase with room for many to move in an out at the same time.
As far as the massive audition goes, I believe that to be true but it takes place midyear and months are spent by the teachers of all the disciplines in preparation for this audition.There is also quite a lot of opportunity for callbacks. In addition for the last few months the teachers have been working with the students to prepare them for summer stock etc. auditions. I know that my daughter wishes she had had the training she now has for her college auditions l last year, they would have been very different experiences, she is now so much better trained and makes very different choices. Michael I see you beat me to the post
