Targeted Audition Sessions

Should you wish to come to New York to hold auditions for your theater but do not have the time to attend a NYIOP session, the dates do not match your availability or you wish ONLY to hear the exact singers you desire, we are happy to coordinate a targeted/private audition session for you and your theater.

We will take your desired focus or repertoire needs and coordinate with any agencies or singers you wish specifically to hear, as well as with all other agencies and conservatories, to help find you the best choices to best utilize your time. We will also arrange for a suitable audition space and can even help with the travel planning for your private auditions.

We also can specialize your auditions to seek only young artists, emerging professionals, well-established professionals or any other artist segment you need.

We are happy to arrange for a set fee that covers all costs for the auditions or can simply arrange for the needed spaces and bill them accordingly. We also will tailor our fees according to your needs and the amount of work required.

If you wish to arrange for a private audition in New York or any other major American city, please contact David Blackburn directly at davidblackburn@nyiop.com to discuss your needs, timing etc.

Our NINE seasons of auditions throughout the world have put us in good working contact with all the major agencies in the world, every major young artist program and conservatory as well as provided us a unique knowledge of many artists that perhaps would not normally come into your focus as you seek new and innovative casting choices for your theater.

Let our knowledge and expertise help you find hidden gems and also connect you with artists and agencies that perhaps you would not easily find.

In addition, by using NYIOP for your private auditions, you will not have the normal issues of hearing primarily artists from only one or two agencies and will truly have your time best used but hearing only the singers you need and all of this with the impeccable organization that you have come to expect from NYIOP.
