Versatility in a minimum of time

Another actress hopes to land the main role, that of the bride-to-be. During her audition, the director reframes the intentions of the song. Without dismantling, the artist resumes in another style. After the song, the candidates are tested on their acting skills. You have to prove your versatility in a minimum of time. Mamma Mia artists must also know how to dance.
