Insightful. Inspiring. In your corner.
WELCOME
My aim is to offer insights as to how you can achieve more success in the audition room. I am able to design technical exercises to help you extend your vocal range, find new colors in your voice, and/or strengthen your instrument. From a coaching perspective, I use your audition material to inspire you to discover more effective ways to communicate through song -- approaching each song as a story or scene to be told from a unique, personal point of view.
For many years, I have developed professional relationships with NYC casting directors and talent agents. As a result, I have gained first-hand knowledge as to what is - and what is not - successful in the audition room.
You'll soon discover - I am in your corner!

TESTIMONIALS

Broadway: THE PRODUCERS, GIGI, LES MISERABLES, SISTER ACT, CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY
"I thought I had it pretty together, and then along came Dr. Bryan Wade. I am pretty clever at coming up with ideas that are somewhat unconventional but keeping in step with requirements. Then Bryan Wade came along and meticulously guided me into taking musicianship seriously - as well as assessing my voice and its nuances and capabilities.
I carry with me in the show every night my awareness of strength and sound in my voice, using it masterfully.
Dr. Wade is my "go-to" guy!

Bryan will push you to discover who you are as a performer and what you bring in the room and THAT is invaluable today!
