[00:00:00.362]♪ Just as long as I stay in my own little corner ♪
[00:00:06.435]♪ All alone ♪
[00:00:07.268]Lincoln, Nebraska's student, Jocelyn Tisdale,
[00:00:09.380]gets advice from Tony Award-winning musical director,
[00:00:12.410]Jason Michael Webb.
[00:00:14.120]I think if you kind of saw that sadness out,
[00:00:16.900]versus down because sometimes when we face-
[00:00:19.300]My parents wanted to move me into high school
[00:00:21.230]out of the sixth grade-
[00:00:22.063]She gets acting tips from Lincoln native,
[00:00:24.250]Sam Hartley,
[00:00:25.210]who plays Billy Flynn in the National Tour of Chicago.
[00:00:28.890]What is going to help you,
[00:00:31.060]as the actor-
[00:00:32.690]It's all part of the Lied Center,
[00:00:34.530]Triple Threat Broadway Intensive.
[00:00:37.310]We work with professionals on audition cuts,
[00:00:40.410]singing, monologues that we prepared, and dancing.
[00:00:43.770]And we get good one-on-one time with each of them.
[00:00:46.600]When the pandemic hit,
[00:00:47.880]the Lied Center went dark,
[00:00:49.390]but not for long.
[00:00:50.870]At the Lied Center, the show must go online.
[00:00:53.410]Executive director Bill Stephan
[00:00:55.180]said the Lied Center made changes
[00:00:56.810]to keep the arts alive.
[00:00:58.490]Educational programming,
[00:00:59.790]like the Triple Threat Intensive,
[00:01:01.270]was a priority.
[00:01:02.620]We have to provide the arts to the community.
[00:01:05.060]We have to fulfill our mission at the Lied Center
[00:01:07.090]of enriching lives and educating
[00:01:09.730]in the arts.
[00:01:10.563]And so we decided let's see if we can make this move online.
[00:01:14.720]Yeah.
[00:01:15.553](exclaims)
[00:01:16.619]Yeah. Yeah yeah.
[00:01:17.452]In addition to classes,
[00:01:18.310]students had a chance to hang out
[00:01:20.190]and get encouragement from each other.
[00:01:23.179]Look at me.
[00:01:24.700]That's a bonus for Kearney student,
[00:01:26.670]Robbie Exstrom.
[00:01:27.860]It makes you feel less alone,
[00:01:29.330]especially in this time with the pandemic
[00:01:31.320]being self-isolated.
[00:01:32.740]Feeling like you're part of a community.
[00:01:34.820]Hartley says the students responded well
[00:01:37.350]to the online programming.
[00:01:39.140]We miss rehearsals,
[00:01:40.880]we miss auditions,
[00:01:41.850]we miss performing.
[00:01:43.370]That memory of how much fun it was
[00:01:46.640]is really encouraging them to support each other
[00:01:49.420]and to really give their all in class.
[00:01:52.560]It's a way to perform and learn
[00:01:54.610]until the curtain rises again.
