POLISH YOUR PASSION

Screen Shot 2015-02-26 at 1.01.57 AM

Polish Your Passion is an online-based theatre education company that provides personalized audition video feedback to performers (ages 13+) across the country. Using modern technology, students can receive professional feedback on their audition videos in the convenience of their homes, dorm rooms and classrooms. Polish Your Passion was co-founded by singing coach, Caroline Selia, and acting coach, Tom Morin, with the belief that the “moment before” an audition or performance should be a positive experience.

The MomentB4 audition video feedback initiative was created to help our clients feel confident, prepared and polished. MomentB4 brings NYC singing/acting expertise anywhere, so you can have someone coaching you right up until you walk into the audition room! – PYP Creative Team

Currently, Polish Your Passion is launching the first national campaign of #TonyShine. #TonyShine is an online effort that will benefit the Tony Awards® and Carnegie Mellon University’s #NOMINATEMYTEACHER search for the inaugural Excellence in Theatre Education Award. Students can submit a draft of the “Tell Us the Story” portion of their teacher nomination in video or essay format, and Polish Your Passion will send their #TonyShine video feedback for free. The Polish Your Passion co-founders have been inspired by drama teachers in their own educational journeys and seek to encourage all students to nominate a teacher that has changed their life through theatre.
