- Write out the lyrics of your song as if it were a monologue. In the places in the music where there are pauses fill in imaginary dialogue for yourself or your imaginary partner.
- A song is always addressed to someone. Establish the location of the imaginary person but do not use a member of the audience as your imaginary person
- Do not ‘stage’ your audition song. Remain in position and let the lyrics express your goal.
- If the director stops you during your song, treat it as the planned ending of your performance. Use it as an opportunity to show the casting director your adaptability.
- At the end of your song go into a freeze and remain in character for three seconds. Bow and thank your audience.
