Step 2:

Submit Your Video Audition

Congratulations, you have submitted your application to join the Actors Gymnasium. The next step is to create and submit your audition video.

Once created, please upload your video to one of the following platforms: YouTube, Vimeo, or Google Drive (please be sure the video audience is set to public or unlisted). Video links can be submitted through the form below or the link may be emailed to protraining@actorsgymnasium.org

Video submissions should be no longer than 5 minutes in length. Your video should not only feature your skill-set, but also have as much performance energy as possible. Please play to the camera and include as many of the following skills that you can execute safely:

  1. Required: A personal introduction and why you think the Actors Gym ProTraining Program is a good fit for you. 

  2. Handstand (free standing or against a wall)

  3. Forward roll

  5. Splits (left, center and right side)

  6. Backbend (from laying on ground)

  7. Cartwheel (right side and left side)

  8. Pull ups (as many as possible)

  9. Trapeze inversion from hanging (move from hanging by your arms to hanging by your knees gracefully. If you do not have access to a trapeze bar, please use a chin-up bar and lift your toes up to the bar while hanging from your hands).

  10. Please also include any of the following you can safely execute: Front walkover, backbend from standing, front handspring, back handspring, standing back tuck.

  11. A portion of a choreographed act of your choosing which demonstrates sequencing and performance abilities.
