This guide is for performers who are serious about improving their auditions, whether you’ve been in the room dozens of times or you’re just beginning to take your training into real-world practice.
If you’ve auditioned before and felt your nerves took over, or you’ve walked out thinking, “Why didn’t I show what I can actually do?”… this was made for you.
You don’t need years of experience, just the willingness to show up, do the work, and break the old patterns holding you back.
Not at all! This ebook is designed to help performers at any level, though it's especially helpful if you've auditioned once or twice and know the basic audition etiquette. That being said, if you're preparing for your first ever audition, learning my tips on how to keep your audition mindset positive and how to organize yourself pre-and-post audition now will be invaluable.
Absolutely! That’s exactly what it’s built for.
If anxiety, overthinking, shaky hands, or the dread-before-the-door moment are familiar to you, you’re in the right place. You’ll learn how to interrupt the patterns that keep you stuck and replace them with a reliable audition routine you can trust every single time.
Free tips can be helpful, but honestly, they can be a bit scattered and their sources a little unreliable. Every tip in this ebook is tried-and-true, and backed by acting coaches, casting directors, and yours truly (I've been to a lot of auditions, and have worked on the "other side of the table"). Plus, it's all the information you'll need in one place, so you won't have to jump around a bunch of different pages/social accounts/videos.
Nope! Nothing fancy. Just whatever device you prefer to read text on (phone, laptop, ipad, etc.)
All you need is the guide itself and the commitment to actually use it. Everything inside is practical, grounded, and designed to fit into your life without overcomplicating things.
That depends on how quickly you dig in, and how deep you want to work.
Some performers feel a shift immediately, and others build strength over a few auditions. If you’re willing to work through your mindset and whatever may be holding you back in the audition room, and implement my tips, you’ll feel the change faster than you think.
Not at all.
Your Backstage Bestie is for every performer who’s tired of being derailed by nerves and wants to step into the room with confidence.
If you're genuinely doing the work and applying the steps, you will feel a difference, sometimes sooner, sometimes over a few auditions.
But if you feel stuck or unsure how to use the ebook, you can always reach out. I’m here to help you get the most out of it!
The small print: Because of the digital nature of this product, I don't offer refunds. Thank you for your understanding, Bestie!
Absolutely! If you've taken a few acting classes already and feel ready for the next step in your theatre journey (i.e. auditioning), this ebook is right for you!
This guide isn’t for someone who’s never acted before, but it is perfect for early-career performers who know they’re capable of more and just need a steady, confidence-building way to show it.
