Prepping songs for Musical Theatre auditions can be more stressful and confusing than a bad production of Sweeney Todd... but this book can help.
How do you find the right songs, and in all the various genres? Where do you get the sheet music? How do you edit it down to make your 16- or 32-bar cut? What even is a 16-bar cut?! Relax, diva: Your Rep Book has the answers to all these questions and so many more. Adam Wachter has taught courses on audition repertoire selection at top conservatories in the US and UK and spent years accompanying and sitting "behind the table" in auditions for everything from university programs to Broadway shows. This friendly and accessible guide is designed to answer all your questions and help you stock that rep book with tight cuts of great songs so you can walk into your next audition and totally nail it. Including a foreword by Broadway casting director Rachel Hoffman and an afterword by Broadway and West End star Caissie Levy, Your Rep Book takes its readers step-by-step through the strangely mysterious process of building your audition repertoire portfolio (or "rep book" in industry jargon). Leaving no stone - or showtune - unturned, it helps you identify what songs you need in which categories and explains where to find them, how to source and cut the sheet music, and even how to communicate effectively with the accompanist and act your song. Whether you're a high school student auditioning for college MT programs or the ink is still wet on your recent BFA, or even if you're a seasoned pro dusting off those old charts, Your Rep Book is here to help!Author Biography
Adam Wachter is a composer/lyricist, music director, and educator who has taught musical theatre performance on the faculties of Point Park University in the US and both the Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama and LAMDA in the UK. The Hollywood Reporter called him a "breakout star" for his music direction (and quips) on the Disney+/ABC series "Encore!", and his other pit experience includes MD and keyboard credits on Broadway (The Addams Family, War Paint, Allegiance, Finding Neverland), Off-Broadway (Carrie, Old Jews Telling Jokes, Unlock'd, Yank!), and regionally (The Old Globe, Barrington Stage Co., DC Shakes, Signature Theatre Co., Bay Street, PCLO, Wallis Annenberg, Weston Playhouse, La Mirada). His musical Tarrytown won the Craig Noel Award for 'Best New Musical' and was short-listed for the Richard Rodgers Award, and his original songs have been performed at Carnegie Hall, the Kennedy Center, 54 Below, the Hackney Empire, and the Savoy Theatre, and on CBS, Bravo, Boomerang, and the BBC. He has won the Stiles + Drewe 'Best New Song' Prize and the MAC Wallowitch Award, earned an MA from Goldsmiths, University of London, and received the 'Professional Achievement' Alumni Award from his alma mater, the University of Michigan.
