Mater- I highly suggest the Holiday Inn Express in Downtown Hartford! I even remember the address (440 Assylum Street). It is only abt 10 mins from the school-and the taxi fair is only abt 8 dollars. It is also located right downtown, next to union station, a beautiful park, and the capitol building! (great view) Also, my mom and I flew and we recieved transportation directly to our hotel!(we took the city bus and they dropped us off right in front) As for the flow of the day-MT kids did begin with a dance call! After registering, current students opened up a couple of dance rooms for everyone to stretch and warm up and specifically practice our pirouettes!lol After warming up, the dance call cinsusted of ballet barre work, across the floor jazz combinations, and a combination to the music of Hairspray! it was a blast! Then we went in groups of threes to do our song and monologue. A current student introduces you, you slate your songs/monologue-and do your stuff! There was a short Q&A after my audition but nothing frightening. It was a over great day! And Very well ran. The current students (acting and MT) were constantly making themselves available to answer questions or just talk! Sorry if i’m just blabbing info that you already know! lol

Gwen Fairfax- MT kids do begin with a group dance call, which was probably the highlight of the entire audition for me! It was so much fun! and my mom said the same-about the head of the program. All around genuine people!

BEK- no instrument! lol I auditioned for the musical theatre program-and I’m still waiting to hear of an admission decision, but my spirits are high and Hartt is such a great school!
