The Senior Corps
Admission to the Senior Corps is by audition/interview only.
Auditions will be scheduled each spring from February-June. Students are asked to prepare one monologue (roughly one minute in length), preferably from a Shakespeare play. (Monologues which are self-written or taken from a source other than a published play are not acceptable). To schedule an audition (see dates below), please email us here, or call Shayna Cooper at 973-408-3806. For students who live outside New Jersey or are otherwise unable to audition in person, a phone interview combined with a letter of recommendation from a theatre teacher or director is an acceptable substitute for the audition.
