Congratulations to multi-talented senior Emmi Lee. She will be participating in the Broadway Dreams 2023 Showcase in New York City on November 20.
Emmi was selected after an intense audition in Charlotte in front of music faculty and directors, earning her a place among the top 5% of Broadway Dreams’ participants from around the world.
From BROADWAY DREAMS SHOWCASE - WHAT’S IT ALL ABOUT?
At the Showcase, rising stars from all around the world will share their talent on stage alongside an expansive network of Broadway’s best. We will recreate some of the best numbers from the Summer season, and present exciting new material for this special night.
The rehearsal process may also feature masterclass opportunities with surprise guests, ensuring that this will indeed be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for all involved.
While it is by no means guaranteed, the Showcase can lead to representation and professional opportunities for our students. For example, our very own Ryann Redmond was cast in the Broadway company of Bring It On after she was discovered at this very event! Last year's showcase led to Charlotte dreamer, Justin Rivers, being cast in the new musical Transparent, where a new role was written for Justin.
Past audiences have included agents, casting directors, producers, choreographers, and directors who were present to champion and observe our students, helping to make their dreams come true.
