The workshop is for children ages 7 through 15

Students who have already signed up for Stages' summer camp, June 22 through July 25 in Agoura Hills, and will be performing in "Seussical" can attend the workshop for free to help them hone their auditioning skills.

Children not already enrolled in the summer camp can apply the $20 workshop fee toward camp registration.

The workshop is designed to give children who feel anxious at auditions more confidence for the next time they try out.

The workshop features audition tips from fellow performers and professionals, including Ginny Grady, singer, dancer, actress and director for more than 35 years; an hour of group vocal instruction and pointers from vocal coach and teacher Dawn Walters; and the chance to learn and practice cold reading.

Workshop participants also will learn a simple dance routine and tips for dance auditions.

The cost is $20. Preregistration is encouraged as space is limited.
