I am preparing for this program by diving into the music and the stories of the shows that I will be participating in.
I became interested in this program because it is a great opportunity to become a more well-rounded artist. I also participated last year and had such a great time that I was eager to return. I was interested in NUOVA this year in particular because I am nearly finished my undergrad and I feel like this will be a valuable experience to have before auditioning to masters programs.
