Tip of the Day #26
Preparation is the foundation of confidence in the Broadway world.
Action Step: Take 10 minutes today to practice your “elevator pitch” about who you are and what you do in the industry. Whether you’re an actor, playwright, producer, or super fan, being able to confidently share your story in under 30 seconds can make a powerful first impression.
Here’s how to craft your pitch:
1. Start with Who You Are: Introduce yourself with your name and a key role or title. Example: “Hi, I’m [Name], and I’m a playwright passionate about telling untold stories.”
2. Share What You’re Working On: Highlight a current project or goal. Example: “Right now, I’m developing a play about [topic], and I’m seeking collaborators.”
3. End with What You’re Looking For: Be clear about what you want or hope to connect on. Example: “I’d love to talk more about how I can contribute to your company’s upcoming season.”
Once you have it written, say it out loud. Refine it until it feels natural. Practice with a friend or even in front of the mirror. The goal is to sound polished without sounding rehearsed.
Your pitch is your first step to opening doors. Confidence in what you say translates to confidence in how others see you.
Ready to test your pitch? If so, post it as a video in the chat, so we can see it!
