Renee Chambers-Liciaga Interview/ Information

I recently sat down with Broadway Veteran and professional choreographer  Renee Liciaga Chambers. She gave me a lot of personal advice that I liked, and will really help me out. She also told me to share a few words with you guys. Part of being in the industry is being responsible and accountable for what you do. This is so important because you are responsible for you!  “Be on Time, Be Prepared, Be Responsible” this is something that she and her husband both STRESS!!!  She wanted me to make sure everyone knows this, because in today’s world you cannot mess around, it’s very cut-throat!

Renee and her husband have many years in the business of “show biz” and they have seen how things work in entertainment world. They realized that there were people out there who didn’t know how the whole process worked, so they launched there site called PARS (Performing Arts Resource Site). You can find out everything and ANYTING you need to know about breaking into this world, and they even give personal help as well! This site is really useful and helpful if you are SERIOUS about wanting a career in “the biz”. Visit www.PARSmembership.info for more information! They have everything from the audition, to getting booked, to getting the part, and more! I can’t tell you guys how HELPFUL it is, and I am grateful they made it!  She teaches any discipline of dance, and also teaches in voice, and acting as well! She has students working with her who are currently getting booked on National Commercials and Professional Shows as well! She is very proud of this, and has worked extremely hard with them to make sure they are ready! When working with Renee you will not only get her help and expertise, but you are getting coached by someone who has experienced all of this is first hand, and has MANY MANY connections! I think that is absolutely amazing to have in someone who is helping you out!
