Vocal Coach

Extracurricular Opportunities, Productions

Working with a Vocal Coach is one of the best ways to prepare for Musical Theatre auditions and festivals and is a highly encouraged practice for any actor interested in a career in the arts. Erin Miller has been working with Uni Theatre Arts since 2011. She helps students select material for the auditive process that stands out and highlight their individual skills. Erin meets students where they are at, growing them from students who are terrified to publically make noise to students who bravely sing their way into Ivy League colleges. For UNI’s convenience, Erin offers lessons in the Little Theatre weekly.
