After Monday night's amazing event, all 48 nominees, our two new winners and a BIG crowd of supporters gathered in the Minskoff Theatre lobby for a well-deserved celebration. Against the floor-to-ceiling windows looking out onto the bright lights of Times Square, they took time to share stories from the past week with their family and friends. The party ran past midnight then it was back to the dorms for one last night at NYU.A nice surprise met the participants when they awoke Tuesday morning - a delicious, HOT breakfast buffet! After enjoying their share of eggs, sausage, waffles, bacon and all things yummy, it was time to board the buses for a trip to Telsey Casting.
The day at Telsey started with a meeting including the 50 participants and representatives from Nickelodeon. From there, individual screen-tests for Nickelodeon were completed...what a great opportunity! Following the screen-tests, Jimmy Awards judge and Telsey casting director Rachel Hoffman gave the group a workshop on auditions, resume preparation and an overview on what it takes to work in show biz. Throughout the morning, everyone had a chance to look at materials from a real Actors Equity audition (one was in session in the very same building at the same time!) .After a relaxing pizza lunch, everyone boarded the bus and said
goodbye to New York City. Keep an eye on this group - we know they'll be back in NYC very soon!
