How To Fake My Way Through A Dance Audition?

Posted on | February 21, 2010 |

I have a musical theatre audition for a musical coming up, and the musical is very strong in dance. The choreographer for this show is really, really good. But I have very little formal dance experience. So my question is: does anyone have any tips for how to fake my way through this dance audition? I’ve done lots of musicals and musical auditions before, so I know basic terminology. I’ve also been renting dance videos to help. But does anyone have any other tips? Thanks!

    I’ve taken many years of dance, but I’m not skinny. So going into my last dance audition - I was nervous. Like your situation, the choreographer what AMAZING. The show was Thoroughly Modern Mille. Anyways, there are two things to remember:
    1. Keep your head up and make eye-contact with the judges.
    2. SMILE! Smile the whole time. No matter what. Just plaster that smile on and go with it.
    All that being said, that’s what I’ve always done, and it has landed me some great parts. CONFIDENCE is the biggest key, I promise.
    Break a leg :-)
    PS - If it’s for a musical, do your best with the dancing and make up for anything you feel you lack by blowing them away with your singing! That’s a good trick :)

    You don’t need to fake your way through. Just be yourself! After all if you fake you’ll get found out eventually.Just practise and keep watching dance videos and try your best.
