StageAgent makes it super easy for performers who want to learn about operas and musicals. The in-depth character descriptions with vocal ranges will save you so much time and help you come prepared for an audition. The library of audition songs with associated context and character descriptions is a fabulous tool for any singer.

StageAgent is great for finding monologues for auditions. It's so helpful because StageAgent not only provides the monologue, but also the associated character description and show summary providing a wonderful context for the piece.

StageAgent is my go-to resource to study character breakdowns. As an actress, I love having one reliable source for show and character information, monologues and audition songs. StageAgent helps me come better prepared to auditions and feel that much closer to booking the role.

Now you don't have to rely on guesswork to figure out which roles are right for you, or what audition song will help you land a part. It's like an encyclopedia for theater and musicals, but way more clear and easy to search. I highly recommend StageAgent.

StageAgent easily summarized each character's role so that I knew what I was getting myself into before walking into the audition room.
