Attention MAD Applicants
*Attention MAD Applicants. We have now completed the process of collecting videos for Auditions and Interviews and we are moving on to the selection process. Please be patient as all Wood Street programs work to review applicants for selection.
*Officially, April 24th is the day that students should receive letters of invitation delivered to their home schools.
*At MAD, we not only have our 28 students per semester selected, but will have a waiting list, as well. We do not publish that list, and students may drop out at any point in the process, including deciding not to attend, be unable to, so you may get an invitation right up to the start of the program in August (first semester) and January (2nd semester).

Interview Video |
Audition Video |
|
This1-minute interview portion is made up of the questions below:
1. Why have you applied to be in MAD? 2. What do you want to learn at MAD? 3. Will you have other commitments that may get in the way of your time at MAD? Sports, clubs, etc. 4. Are you able to balance your homework and life, keeping up with both? 5. Are you prepared to work in a team, and if so, how would you overcome conflict with others in a productive way? * please do not wear your costume during this video, this is for you to show us you, not the character |
Criteria for the Audition portion:
1. The audition video needs to be 1 minute in length 2. You will need to come up with a costume that changes your look (just wearing a pair of eyeglasses is not enough effort) 3. You are creating a character to play, that is different from yourself 4. You must be older than your age, enough that it is a significant difference (if you are 14, aim for 25, or 35, maybe) 5. You can be any gender, but not a different ethnic group. You also should not use an accent that is outside of your ethnic identification 6. Please review your video to see if you can be heard. |
When you have completed your video, you can either send your video by email to davecarolynmad@gmail.com.
If there are issues because the video is too large to send, you can request a Dropbox link to upload them there.
Please be patient, our internet is often just as challenging to work with as yours may be.
