    <title>Improvised Singing Class</title>
    <description>&lt;h3&gt;IMPROVISED SINGING&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Make up your own songs with a live musical improviser every week. We will cover topics such as rhyming, song structure, song styles, song presentation, lyrics, duets, short form singing games, and communicating with the musical improviser. It's like karaoke, but you make up your own words. This is one of our most popular classes and only gets offered once or twice a year. You don't need to be a great singer to take this class, you just need to enjoy singing. (Class size limit = 14)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Mondays 6pm - 8pm March 23 - June 1  (No class May 25th) 10 weeks $200&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Instructors: Shana Merlin and Michael Brockman&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;At the  &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.salvagevanguard.org/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Salvage Vanguard Theater&lt;/a&gt;,  2803 Manor Road&lt;/p&gt;

His background is in Keith Johnstone, story-focused improv, but he has studied with and incorporated concepts from instructors of all styles of improv. Roy is a founding member of the award-winning troupe Parallelogramophonograph, and he has performed and taught all around the country.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;p id=&quot;m3it2&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;About The Hideout:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p id=&quot;m3it3&quot;&gt;The Hideout Theatre has been offering Austin&amp;#39;s best professional improv comedy since 1999 in the heart of downtown.

    <title>City Theatre Acting Series: The Art of Auditioning </title>
    <description>&lt;p&gt;Discussion of different auditioning techniques, including methods of preparation, monologue selection and performance, the mechanics of presentation of provided sides, and how to project your desired personal image. Activities: In addition to lectures outlining procedures and techniques for auditioning, students will present auditions at various times to the instructor individually and to the class as a whole. A variety of audition situations will be simulated realistically, including cold readings and prepared readings. Auditions will be critiqued and by the end of the class students will have a great deal more practical audition experience, and a set of criteria to assist the student in future auditions&lt;/p&gt;</description>
